Step-by-Step Instructions for Fluffy Pumpkin Soufflé

  3. Heat pumpkin puree, milk, brown sugar, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, allspice, and salt in a saucepan over medium heat until steaming.
  4. Gradually stir the warm mixture into the yolks to temper, then return to saucepan and cook on low for 2 minutes before cooling slightly.
  5. Beat egg whites until medium-firm peaks form, then add additional fine sugar and whip to stiff peaks.
