VEGAN CHOCOLATE SOUFFLE:

Vegan Chocolate Souffle

Ingredients:

1 oz. (28g) Santa Barbara Vegan Chocolate Chips

2 tablespoon coconut oil

3 tablespoon cornstarch

¼ Aquafaba (***vegan egg and dairy substitute - see link below for a recipe)

1 tablespoon Vanilla Extract

½ teaspoon baking powder

2 tablespoon vegan brown sugar

Instruction:

In a large bowl, using an electric mixer, beat the aquafaba, sugar and vanilla for 4 minutes until it forms a Chantilly consistency of fluffiness, (do not over beat).

Melt the chocolate and add the coconut oil, cornstarch and baking soda. Pour the aquafaba mixture (slowly) until everything is mixed.

Preheat the oven to 350F, transfer chocolate souffle mixture to the souffle baking dish (3.5 inch, 6 oz capacity round), be careful not to get batter on the edge of the dish. Bake for approximately 15 to 25 minutes. Do not open the oven during first 20 minutes of baking (the souffle will fall).

Serve immediately, the souffle will begin to lose its lift and collapse as it cools.

***What is vegan Aquafaba?

Aquafaba is a thick water that had been soaked with white beans or chick peas. It is thick with fiber and flavor and is used as an eggs substitute since it is high in protein and vegan. This is how you can make a vegan chocolate souffle. Make it in advance and keep in the refrigerator for easy and fast vegan baking.
