No water bath, Jenny; though you can certainly use one if you like. You'd probably have to increase the baking time somewhat - since I didn't use the bath, don't know by how much. And it's not important to set the springform pan on a baking sheet - I just do that because personally, I find it easier to move a baking sheet in and out of the oven. Its edges give me a better grip than the rounded sides of the springform pan. PJH
