Recipe Description
Follow this simple recipe to make the famous Basque Burnt Cheesecake using an air fryer!
This is a recipe I have found when my oven is ‘acting up’. Since I used to bake chicken using the air fryer, I thought that it might be possible to bake a cheesecake too.
As my air fryer is quite small, it can only fit a 6-inch round pan, which I think is a perfect size for my family of 4.
The result is better than I expected!
Happy baking and hope you find the recipe useful.
