Equipment
- Mixing Bowls
You’ll need various sizes for combining ingredients. Stainless steel or glass bowls work best for maintaining constant temperature.
- Electric Mixer
Use a stand mixer or hand mixer to ensure a smooth, creamy texture for your cheesecake filling.
- Springform Pan
A 16 cm (6.3 inch) diameter pan allows for easy release of the cheesecake once chilled. Make sure it's non-stick or give it a light greasing.
- Silicone Spatula
This tool is perfect for folding and mixing ingredients evenly without deflating your batter.
- Fine Grater
Essential for grating apples. If your apples are too juicy, a coarse grater should do the trick.
