Supplies Needed:
For this recipe, you will also need to have a 7" Springform pan on hand. If you don’t already have one, you can grab the 7" Springform Pan here. I used my Cosori 5.8qt air fryer for this recipe. If you don’t use a Cosori 5.8, make sure you use this recipe as a guide. You may have to add or take away time depending on what sort of power wattage your air fryer uses.
How to Make Pumpkin Cheesecake in the Air Fryer
NOTE: All air fryers are manufactured differently and can cook at different power wattages. This recipe was made using a Cosori 5.8qt air fryer. If you’re using a different air fryer, use this recipe as a guide as you may have to add or take away time depending on the type of air fryer you have.
Why do I need to soften cream cheese when making cheesecake?
If you don’t use softened cream cheese, your cheesecake will have little lumps throughout. Make sure you allow the cream cheese to sit at room temperature for an hour to soften before using it in a cheesecake. You can also soften cheesecake a little faster by placing it in the microwave for 1-1 ½ minutes at 50% power to soften it faster.
How long do I need to chill the cheesecake before serving it?
It’s important to prepare ahead of time when making the cheesecake. I always make my cheesecakes the day before I want to serve them so that they will firm up and slice perfectly. You can chill the cheesecake in the refrigerator for 6-8 hours, but I prefer to chill my cheesecake overnight to ensure they are perfectly firm before slicing.
Can I use a baking dish if I don’t have a Springform pan?
You can use any type of baking dish for your cheesecake as long as it fits into your air fryer. Note: Using a dish that’s not a Springform pan with removable sides will make the task of slicing and removing the cheesecake more difficult and possibly messy. I hope you enjoy this recipe for pumpkin cheesecake! It’s one of my favorite fall recipes to serve during the holidays. In fact, it doesn’t even have to be a holiday for me to want to eat a slice of this dish. I’ll take a piece of pumpkin cheesecake on any fall day.
