Vanilla Soufflé
For Coating the Soufflé Dish:
Butter, enough to coat the dish
1/4 cup sugarTo Make the Soufflé:
1 1/3 cups milk, divided
1/3 cup plus 2 tbs sugar
1/3 cup all-purpose flour
1 1/2 tbs unsalted butter
2 tsp vanilla extract
4 eggs, separated
Garnish: confectioners’ sugar, for dusting
Optional: fresh berriesSteps to Make It:
Preheat the oven to 350°.
Coat the Soufflé Dish:
Butter a large soufflé dish and sprinkle in 1/4 cup of granulated sugar, tilting the dish to make sure the entire interior surface is covered.
Set aside the prepared soufflé dish.
Make the Soufflé:
Bring 1 cup of the milk to just steaming in a medium saucepan set over low-medium heat.
In a bowl, stir together 1/3 cup granulated sugar, 1/3 cup all-purpose flour, and the remaining 1/3 cup milk until it forms a smooth batter.
Slowly whisk half of the hot milk into the batter, making sure to combine the ingredients until they are completely smooth.
Add the tempered batter back to the hot milk in the pan and bring the mixture to a simmer, stirring constantly. Stir and cook the mixture until it has thickened, for about 1 min.
Stir the butter into the mixture until combined.
Allow batter to cool at room temperature for 10 min, then stir in the vanilla extract.
In a separate bowl, beat the egg whites on medium-high speed until they become foamy, and then add the remaining 2 tbs sugar. Continue beating the egg whites on high speed until they hold stiff, glossy peaks.
Gently stir 1/3 of the egg whites into the vanilla mixture, then carefully fold in the remaining whipped egg whites. The vanilla mixture should be evenly colored and light and bubbly, without egg white streaks or marbling.
Spoon the soufflé mixture into the prepared dish and allow it to rest, covered, for up to 30 min.
Bake for 25 to 30 min (slightly longer at high altitudes) until the soufflé has risen and has a crusty exterior.
Serve the soufflé with a dusting of powdered sugar and a few plump berries, if desired. Serves 6
