An egg soufflé is made by folding beaten egg whites into a seasoned yolk mixture, often with milk, cheese, or a light sauce. Fold gently so you keep the air in the whites, transfer the mixture to a baking dish, and bake it straight away.
Some settling is normal as an egg soufflé cools, because the hot air that made it rise contracts. A dramatic collapse can mean the center was underbaked or the oven door was opened during baking. Serve it soon after it comes out of the oven.
An egg soufflé gets its airy rise from whipped egg whites and is baked in the oven. An omelet is usually made from beaten whole eggs cooked in a pan, so it has a denser texture and does not rise in the same way.
An egg soufflé starts with eggs separated into yolks and whites; savory versions commonly add milk or a sauce, cheese, and seasoning. Some recipes use flour to help make the base, while others leave it out for a lighter, more egg-forward result.
Yes, you can make an egg soufflé using only egg whites, though it will lack the richness and flavor that yolks provide. Whip the whites until they hold their shape, then fold in the other ingredients gently to avoid losing the air.
You can prepare the yolk base for an egg soufflé ahead, but it is best to whip and fold in the whites just before baking. Once mixed, the foam starts losing air, so leaving the unbaked soufflé to wait can reduce its rise.
Yes, an egg soufflé works well in individual ramekins. Grease the dishes and divide the mixture evenly, leaving room at the top for it to rise. Smaller portions may bake faster than one large soufflé, so check their centers rather than relying only on appearance.
Serve an egg soufflé with a crisp green salad, roasted vegetables, or toast for a simple meal. Its soft, savory texture pairs especially well with fresh, lightly dressed sides; bring it to the table soon after baking because it gradually sinks.
Refrigerate leftover egg soufflé in a covered container once it has cooled, rather than leaving it out for an extended time. Reheat it gently before eating, but expect it to be denser and less airy than when freshly baked.
You can freeze an egg soufflé, but freezing and thawing often make its egg-based texture watery or rubbery. For the best result, serve it freshly baked; if you have leftovers, refrigeration and gentle reheating generally preserve the texture better.

Egg soufflé is a baked dish made from eggs, with beaten egg whites folded into the mixture to give it a light, airy rise. The technique is closely associated with French cooking; versions can be savoury or sweet, though a simple egg soufflé is often served as a savoury meal.
Serve it straight from the oven, before it settles, for the fluffiest texture. It works well for brunch or a light lunch, alongside a crisp salad, vegetables or bread. With 10.5 g of protein per 100 g, it offers a useful protein contribution, while the overall richness depends on additions such as cheese or cream. For a lighter version, use modest amounts of these and pair it with fresh vegetables.
High
How many vitamins, minerals and how much fiber this food carries per calorie. A high score means a lot of nutrition for few calories.
Medium
An EatBetter score computed from fiber, protein and calorie density. A high score means staying full longer on the same calories.
Both scores are calculated per 100 g and do not change with the selected portion. The satiety score is EatBetter's own calculation, not a clinical measure.
