A Delicious Carrot Recipe

Are you looking for a new side dish? Here's a fabulous one.

Preheat your oven to 350 degrees. Spray a baking dish with cooking spray.

First, peel and wash a bunch of carrots. Then cut them up and steam them. Don't over cook them. Just steam them until they're tender. Then mash the carrots. You can do this with a potato masher, a blender, a food processor, or a mixer. You need at least 2 cups of mashed carrots but can easily have more!  Add the following ingredients to the carrots and mix well.

1/2 stick butter

3/4 cup sugar

2 eggs

1 cup milk

1 teaspoon baking powder

3 tablespoons flour

a pinch of salt

1 teaspoon vanilla

1 teaspoon cinnamon

(Do you want to make this healthier?  Substitute apple sauce for all but 1 tablespoon of the butter.  Use agave nectar in place of the sugar or use half the amount of sugar.  I never use the full 3/4 cup.  The carrots are sweet on their own. Use skim milk... just some ideas)

Here are the carrots ready to be cooked. Put them in the preheated oven for an hour.

This carrot souffle is delicious.  I hope you enjoy it!
