Ingredients

How To Make squash souffle

  • Step 1
    Preheat oven to 350. Slice the squash and dice the onion. Combine with salt and sugar with enough water to just cover. Bring to a boil, then lower heat and simmer for 20 minutes.
  • Step 2
    Drain well, and return to pot.
  • Step 3
    Mash with a potato masher. (Drain again if needed)
  • Step 4
    Add eggs, butter, flour milk and cheese. Mix until cheese is melted and everything is well blended.
  • Step 5
    Pour into casserole dish and bake for 30 - 45 minutes.
  • Step 6
    After baking, take out of oven and top with buttered bread crumbs (I'm sure crackers would work as well), and bake 10 minutes more, or until bread crumbs are golden.
