Thanks to John & Jo for the butternut squashes... we have been enjoying them to the fullest. This recipe is absolutely a keeper! Best eaten while still warm.

3/4 cup demarara sugar
2 Tbsp gluten-free flour
1 1/2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
3 eggs, beaten
1/2 cup butter, softened
1/2 tsp cinnamon
1 1/2 tsp vanilla
gluten-free icing sugar for sprinkling on top

While squash flesh is warm, add sugar. Whip with mixer until smooth. Add flour, salt and baking powder and mix well. Whip eggs and add to flour mixture, blend well. Add softened butter to mixture and blend well. Add vanilla and spices . Pour mixture into baking dish about half full as the souffle will rise.
