Paleo Pumpkin Soufflé (Dairy-Free & Gluten-Free)
 
Prep time

This recipe is very rich in pumpkin, and has just two eggs, so it's a bit like crustless pumpkin pie meets fluffy soufflé in consistency. It's only a touch sweet, and works as a savory side. But you can use a sweetened milk beverage if you want it a touch sweeter.
