How to make Cheese Sponge Cake using an air fryer
-
Melt the cheese
Put 110g of cream cheese at room temperature and 70g of unsalted butter into a pan.
Turn on low heat, stirring continuously until the mixture melts and combines, then let it cool completely.
-
Mix the cake batter
Separate the egg whites and yolks of 4 eggs.
Place the melted cheese and butter mixture into a large bowl, add the 4 egg yolks, and stir the mixture well.
Next, add 100g of all-purpose flour to the mixture in the bowl and mix until well combined.
-
Whip the egg whites
Place 4 egg whites into a large bowl.
Using a hand mixer, beat on low speed until the eggs become frothy like soap bubbles.
When large bubbles appear, add about 20g of sugar and beat on low speed until the sugar dissolves. After 30 seconds of beating, add another 20g of sugar and continue beating on low speed.
When adding the final 10g of sugar to the egg whites, beat at high speed until the egg whites are soft and fluffy, with a creamy texture, the mixture is sticky, glossy, and smooth, forming soft peaks, then lower the speed and continue beating for an additional 1-2 minutes. When lifting the whisk creates a drooping peak, it is done.
Tip: You should divide the sugar into 2-3 portions and gradually beat it with the eggs to ensure even dissolving.
-
Mix the egg whites with the cake flour
Add the whipped egg whites in small portions to the flour mixture, gently stir until all the egg whites are incorporated.
When mixing the ingredients, you should fold gently (mixing by turning and lifting from the bottom to the top in one direction) and avoid stirring too vigorously to prevent breaking too many air bubbles, which will cause the cake not to rise well. Just mix until the flour is evenly combined with the egg mixture.
Tip:
- Divide the whipped egg whites into smaller portions and add them multiple times for a more even mixture.
- Folding the batter will help retain air bubbles, reducing the risk of over-mixing that can cause the egg to separate. Additionally, when mixing the batter, it also helps prevent clumping and allows for faster and more even mixing. To make cakes that use egg whites for leavening, it’s important to fold the batter gently.
- A tip for those who are not familiar with the folding technique, you can use a whisk to stir gently in one direction to minimize breaking the air bubbles.
-
Pouring the mold and baking
Line the cake mold with non-stick parchment paper (you can adjust it according to your mold).
Gently pour the mixed batter into the mold, spreading it evenly. Tap the bottom of the mold lightly to break all the large air bubbles. Cover the top of the mold with a piece of aluminum foil as shown.
Preheat the oven for 10 minutes before baking at 350 degrees F. Bake the cake at 350 degrees F for 10 minutes and then lower to 300 degrees F, baking for an additional 20 minutes until the cake is fully cooked.

Final product
The cheese sponge cake made with an air fryer is extremely easy to make and delicious with the rich flavor of cheese, and the soft fluffy cake layer is very appealing. Let’s enjoy it right away!

Melt the butter
Put 20ml of whipping cream and 2 pieces of cheese into the bowl, then steam this mixture or microwave for 30 seconds until the cheese melts.
-
Mixing the batter
Next, add 2 egg yolks and 10g of sugar into a new bowl, then use a whisk to beat until the eggs are frothy and turn a light yellow color.
At this point, add 20ml of cooking oil and the melted cheese mixture, and continue to mix well.
Then, add 40g of flour into the bowl, mix until the batter is well combined, smooth, and flows like a ribbon is achieved.
-
Completing the batter and baking the cake
Add 2 egg whites into a new bowl and beat on low speed until the egg whites form tiny bubbles like soap.
Divide 30g of sugar into 3 portions, adding each portion to the egg whites and beating on medium speed until the sugar dissolves.
When adding the last portion of sugar, increase the mixer speed to high until the egg whites are stiff, forming peaks that stand upright without drooping.
Tip: To achieve good egg whites, ensure that the egg whites are clean and free from any impurities such as yolk, grease, water, etc.!Next, divide the whipped egg whites into 2 parts. Add each part to the cake batter mixture and gently fold the mixture from bottom to top using a spatula.
Bring the spatula down to the bottom of the bowl, push the heavy ingredients up, and fold them to one side in a folding motion (scooping and tossing from below). Continue this action until the mixture becomes smooth.
Note: It is advisable to fold correctly to avoid breaking large air bubbles; otherwise, the cake will not rise.Preheat the air fryer to 140 degrees Celsius for 10 minutes.
Finally, pour the batter into the cake mold and bake for 30 minutes at 140 degrees Celsius. When the cake is done, leave it in the fryer for another 2 minutes before removing it.
