Baked cheesecakes are guaranteed to please a crowd, and they’re brilliant cooked in the air fryer. The stable temperature and constantly moving air means the top is much less likely to crack, providing you with a cheesecake that looks as good as it tastes – which, when enriched with rum for an eggnog-esque flavour, is very good indeed.
Did you know the air fryer makes brilliant brownies, too?

Before you start
Don’t be tempted to skip the chilling stage of this cheesecake! It’ll still be quite soft and wobbly once it’s cooked, but the longer cooling time helps it set into a texture that’s deliciously rich yet still fluffy and light. This is one of those ‘revelation’ air fryer recipes, as the evenly browned top means you don’t need lots of icing sugar to cover up cracks (which are common when you’re using a conventional oven).
The size of cake tin depends on the size of your air fryer, so be sure to check it fits in with the drawer or lid closed.
