Ingredients for Mumsy’s Christmas Morning Soufflé:
2 loaves white sandwich bread
3 jars Kraft Old English cheese spread
2 sticks butter
8 eggs
4 cups milk
Directions for Mumsy’s Christmas Morning Soufflé:
- Freeze the bread loaves for easier cutting and spreading.
- Grease a 9×13 or larger pan. Or, use 2 pans.
- Mix the 2 sticks of softened butter (in microwave if necessary) with the cheese spread.
- Pull out one bread loaf at a time. Take about 4 slices, stack them, and cut the crusts off. Spread the butter/cheese mixture on one side of each slice. Restack them and cut into 9 or 16 squares per slice. Place into pan.
- Repeat until your pan(s) is full.
- Beat the eggs and milk together. Pour over the bread in the pan. Put any extra butter/cheese mixture on top.
- Choose one of the following: Cover and freeze for later. Cover and refrigerate for later. Or, bake uncovered for about 1 hour at 350 degrees. Then let it sit for 10-15 minutes before serving.
Low Carb Version of Mumsy’s Christmas Morning Soufflé
To create a healthier, low-carb, or keto version of Mumsy’s Christmas Morning Souffle, I’ll try adapting it with some of the following next time I make it.
Ingredients Adjustments:
- Bread Replacement:
- Use keto-friendly bread made from almond or coconut flour, or purchase a low-carb bread option.
- Alternatively, use a chaffle (cheese waffle) or bake a homemade keto bread.
- Cheese Spread:
- Replace Kraft Old English cheese spread with a homemade cheese mixture using cream cheese and sharp cheddar for fewer additives and carbs.
- Eggs and Milk:
- Keep the eggs as is (they are keto-friendly).
- Replace regular milk with unsweetened almond milk, heavy cream, or a mixture of both to reduce carbs.
Directions Adjustments:
- Baking: Bake as directed. Keto bread or alternatives may absorb the liquid differently, so you might need to check for doneness a bit earlier.
