You can now bake your favourite Basque cheesecake<\/a> in an air fryer! It\u2019s a great alternative to traditional oven baking: the cheesecake is creamy and delicate, with its characteristic deeply caramelised top. The mixture takes just a few minutes to prepare, and the cheesecake bakes quickly without the need to preheat the oven. <\/em><\/p>\n

I made this air fryer Basque cheesecake using half the original quantities and a smaller tin. It\u2019s important to place the tin on the air fryer rack and leave enough space around the sides for the hot air to circulate freely. The cheesecake doesn\u2019t rise very much in the air fryer, but the top develops a beautiful, deeply browned crust \u2013 which is hardly surprising, given how close it is to the heating element. Without a bottom heating, the cheesecake stays very creamy underneath. The final texture and how well the cheesecake is baked will depend on the baking time, the size and type of tin, and your particular air fryer model. I have to admit that getting the timing just right can be tricky on your first attempt, but once you\u2019ve tried it, it\u2019s much easier to adjust the time to suit your appliance and personal preference. If you love Basque cheesecake, you really must try this version!<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
