Best Basque Burnt Cheesecake Recipe

This truly is the Best Basque Burnt Cheesecake Recipe – it has only 7 ingredients, whips up quickly and bakes to a creamy, dreamy cheesecake dessert.

After watching this video recipe on the Bon Appetit YouTube Channel for how to make a Basque Burnt Cheesecake, I couldn’t resist attempting to create a my own version of the crustless cheesecake.

I went for coconut flour instead of flour, making it a fully gluten free cheesecake. And, I reduced the ingredient volumes so that the batter would easily fit into my springform tin.

How to make Basque Cheesecake with 7 ingredients

The adaptations create a dessert that has the characteristic burnt top and silky smooth, creamy cheesecake texture below.

To actually make the cheesecake couldn’t be simpler. You just add all of the ingredients into a bowl, one at a time, whisking as you go until you have a frothy, creamy mixture.

Batter in the springform tin

Make sure that the baking tin is well lined, with the baking paper going well over the sides, overlapping if need be. This makes sure that nothing sticks to the baking tin during the baking process.

Then, bake for around an hour until burnt on top but still jiggly within. You can enjoy warm from the oven or allow to cool completely, move to the fridge then serve chilled. Either way it’s a creamy cheesecake that’s a delight to enjoy.
