How to prepare this irresistible cheesecake in the airfryer

The mix: where the magic happens

Beat all the ingredients In a large bowl: eggs, cream cheese, cured sheep’s cheese and sugar. Do it until you get a fine cream, without lumps and quite homogeneous.
If you have a blender, even better: it will be silky like a bakery blender.
Prepare the mold. Place greaseproof paper covering the base and the walls (it doesn’t have to be perfect; rusticity also has its charm). This prevents the cake from sticking and facilitates unmolding worthy of a TikTok video.
Pour the mixture into the mold and tap gently on the counter to remove trapped air bubbles.

Cooking in the air fryer: the great advantage

Preheat the air fryer at 150 °C for 3 minutes.
This step helps make the setting more uniform and prevents the cake from rising suddenly.
Cook for 40 minutes at 150°C.
You’ll see the edge brown slightly and the center jiggle a little – that’s the perfect spot. If you want it firmer, add 5 minutes, but don’t go overboard or it will lose its juiciness.
Let it rest inside the mold for at least 45 minutes.
The cake finishes settling and gains creaminess. If you can leave it in the refrigerator for 2–3 hours, better; If you can all night, sublime.

Advice from a kitchen journalist

Cured sheep cheese It is the ingredient that differentiates this recipe from the rest: it uses a quality one, with a good aroma and real healing.
If you like “La Viña” style, add 100 ml of cream and increase the sugar to 100 g.
For lovers of a sweet-salty contrast, try serving it with a spoonful of honey or fig jam. Pure fantasy.
This cake improves the next day, so if you can avoid devouring it beforehand… the better. (Spoiler: you won’t be able to.)
