Follow The Directions

01

Step
5 mins

Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). (5 minutes)

02

Step
4 mins

Prepare the broccoli: Place a steamer insert into a saucepan and fill with water to just below the bottom of the steamer. Bring the water to a boil. Add the thawed broccoli, cover, and steam until tender-crisp, about 2 to 4 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.

03

Step
10 mins

Make the sauce: In a saucepan, melt the margarine over medium heat. Whisk in the flour until smooth. Gradually add the milk, whisking constantly to prevent lumps. Cook, stirring frequently, until the sauce has thickened slightly, about 8-10 minutes. Remove from heat.

04

Step
2 mins

Combine and season: In a mixing bowl, gently combine the steamed broccoli, mayonnaise, beaten eggs, and chopped onion. Pour the prepared sauce over the mixture and stir gently to combine. Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper to your liking.

05

Step
30 mins

Bake: Pour the broccoli mixture into a greased baking dish. Bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes.

06

Step
15 mins

Add cheese and finish baking: Sprinkle the shredded Cheddar cheese evenly over the top of the soufflé. Continue baking until the soufflé is set and the cheese is melted and golden brown, about 15 minutes more. Let cool slightly before serving.

For an extra layer of flavor, try adding a pinch of nutmeg to the sauce.
Feel free to substitute other cheeses, such as Gruyere or Parmesan, for the Cheddar.
To prevent the soufflé from deflating too quickly, let it cool slightly in the oven with the door ajar after baking.
The Souffle could be baked in individual ramekins for elegant presentation.

    My broccoli was a little watery, so the souffle was a bit soggy. Definitely squeezing it better next time!
