Step 6: Fold in the Egg Whites
Add one-third of the beaten egg whites to the yolk mixture and fold gently to lighten the batter. Then, gently fold in the remaining egg whites, being careful not to deflate the batter.
Step 7: Pour the Batter and Prepare for Baking
Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan, smoothing the surface. Tap the pan gently on the counter to release any air bubbles.
Step 8: Bake the Cheesecake
Place the cake pan in the large baking pan filled with hot water, creating a water bath. Carefully transfer to the oven and bake at 320°F (160°C) for 60–70 minutes, or until the top is golden and a skewer inserted in the center comes out clean.
Step 9: Cool and Serve
Turn off the oven and let the cake cool inside with the oven door slightly open for 15–20 minutes to prevent cracks. Remove from the oven, and once it’s cool, remove the parchment paper. Dust with powdered sugar and garnish with fresh berries or whipped cream, if desired.
