The use of Neufchatel cheese makes this soufflé taste like a warm pumpkin cheesecake, but with much less fat and fewer calories.

Ingredients

Sugar

2 tbsp(s)

Canned pumpkin

15 oz, puree

Cornstarch

1 tbsp(s)

Fat free evaporated milk

¼ cup(s)

Neufchâtel cheese

4 oz, softened

Pumpkin pie spice

1 tsp(s)

Ground ginger

1 tsp(s)

Raw egg

3 large, separated

Egg whites

1 serving(s), large

Sugar

cup(s)

Instructions

  1. Heat oven to 350ºF. Coat a 2 1/2-quart soufflé dish with cooking spray, sprinkle with 2 tablespoons sugar. Over medium heat, cook pumpkin until no longer steaming, about 8 minutes. Mix together cornstarch and evapourated milk, whisk into pumpkin. Bring to boil; remove from heat and cool.
  2. Beat Neufchatel with pumpkin pie spice and ginger; beat in yolks to combine. Beat in cooled pumpkin mixture.
  3. Beat egg whites until soft peaks form. Add remaining 1/3 cup sugar one tablespoon at a time until stiff. In three additions, fold whites into pumpkin mixture. Pour into prepared dish. Bake until puffed and a toothpick inserted into centre comes out clean, 45 to 50 minutes.
