Here are the ingredients (amounts are in the recipe card below).

🔪Instructions
Let me walk you through how to make it step by step (The photo below is made in the amount of 2 servings). You can also watch this video.

First of all, prepare you ingredients and oven. Bring creamcheese to room temperature. Separate the eggs into yolk and white. Preheat an oven to 200C/392F.
- Mix cream cheese and egg yolk.
- Add soy milk, lemon juice, and cornstarch and mix.
- Beat egg whites.
- Mix 2 and 3.
- Pour the mixture into ramekin bowls and bake in a water bath.
- Bake at 200C/392F for 10 minutes, then lower to 150C/302F for 10 minutes.

The fresh-baked cheesecakes are ready! They are moist and rich yet light in your mouth.
They swell softly right after they come out from the oven, but they will deflate like a picture above after a few minutes. The taste is so good that the appearance won't matter!
You can eat it right away, but even if you chill it in the refrigerator overnight to eat later, I promise that you'll still enjoy every bite.
