  • 1
    Preheat oven to 350^. Butter 6 ramekins or one casserole bowl. Set aside. In a clean and oil free bowl beat egg whites until soft peaks form and set aside.

    In a medium mixer bowl blend the pumpkin, sugar, spices, vanilla, egg yolks and milk.Fold in 1/3 of the egg white mixture just to slightly blend. (Don't over mix, or the soufflé will fall flat instead of being fluffy)Repeat using 1/3 of the whites until whites are all gently folded into the mixture.

    Pour mixture equally into the ramekins or custard cups or casserole bowl- leaving 1/2 inch at the top of each cup. Place cups on baking sheet and bake for 30-45 minutes, until tops are dry and slightly brown.

    NOTE: Make sure to keep the oven door closed while soufflé is baking, or they won't rise properly. Use the oven light to check on them. Serve each with a dollop of whipped topping if desired.
