How To Make carrot souffle

  • Step 1
    Preheat the oven to 350. Grease a 9x13 casserole dish with oil and set aside.
  • Step 2
    Bring a large pot of water to a boil, add the carrots, and cook until tender about 15 minutes; drain. Combine the carrots with the remaining ingredients in a food processor and process until smooth, scraping down the sides of the bowl as necessary. Depending on the size of your processor, you may need to do this in batches.
  • Step 3
    Spoon the mixture into the prepared casserole dish.
  • Step 4
    Combine the brown sugar, pecans, flour and butter in a medium bowl. Stir to blend. Scatter the mixture over the top of the casserole and bake until the topping is lightly browned, 55 minutes to an hour.
