Air-Fryer Cheesecake Tips

Why did my air-fryer cheesecake crack?

Cheesecakes crack for a number of reasons—and sadly, it's hard to pinpoint just one. Learn more about the different reasons they split and how to prevent a cracked cheesecake.

How can I make this air-fryer cheesecake my own?

Make air-fryer cheesecake your own by adding herbs or citrus peel to the crust, or swapping out the crumbs used to make it. Instead of graham cracker crumbs, try using the crumbs of wafer cookies or vanilla wafers. Otherwise, you can create fruit swirls using strawberry or raspberry jam on top, or whip up a flavored whipped cream to add to the top when serving.

How do you store air-fryer cheesecake?

Prepared cheesecakes can be covered and refrigerated for up to 3 days, or frozen for up to 2 months by placing the entire cheesecake or individual slices on a baking sheet and freezing until firm. Wrap in heavy-duty plastic wrap and place in a freezer bag. Thaw in refrigerator before serving. Need more insight? Check out these cheesecake tips.
