Query: How Do You Prevent Cheesecake From Cracking?
Context: If you struggle with your homemade cheesecakes cracking, there are a couple of things you can do to prevent this from happening. The first thing you can do is the water bath method. This method requires placing the springform pan on a sheet pan full of water and baking. Personally, I find this method to be too much work. Alternatively, you could put an oven-safe small bowl full of hot water in the oven to create steam. After baking it's important to make sure the sides are stuck to the pan and it is not chilled too rapidly. If you follow these steps your cheesecake should not split.
