Ingredients
Scale
- 250 g digestive or graham crackers
- 2 tbsp granulated sugar
- 75 g butter
- 300 g fresh blueberries
- 1 tbsp granulated sugar
- 1 tbsp all-purpose flour
- 2 tsp lemon juice
- 110 g all-purpose flour
- 80 g dark brown sugar
- 70 g butter
- 800 g full-fat cream cheese (room temperature)
- 260 g granulated sugar
- 200 g sour cream (18% room temperature)
- 1 1/2 tbsp cornstarch
- 2 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
- 4 large eggs
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F).
- In a food processor, crush the digestive or graham crackers until they reach a fine crumb.
- Add the 2 tablespoons of sugar and melted butter. Pulse until combined.
- Press the crumb mixture into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan evenly. Bake for about 10 minutes, then let it cool.
- In a bowl, mix the blueberries with 1 tablespoon of sugar, 1 tablespoon of flour, and 2 teaspoons of lemon juice. Gently toss to coat and set aside.
- In another bowl, combine the 110 g of flour and 80 g of dark brown sugar. Add the cold butter cut into small pieces. Using your fingers or a pastry cutter, mix until crumbly. Set this aside too.
- In a large mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese with 260 g of granulated sugar until smooth.
- Add the sour cream, cornstarch, vanilla, and then add the eggs one at a time, mixing until just combined.
- Pour half of the cheesecake filling into the prepared crust. Scatter half of the blueberries on top. Pour the remaining filling, top with the rest of the blueberries, and then sprinkle the crumble topping evenly over it all.
- Bake in the preheated oven for about 60-70 minutes or until the edges are set, and the center has a slight jiggle.
- Turn off the oven and let the cheesecake cool inside for an hour to prevent cracking.
- Once cooled, refrigerate for at least four hours, preferably overnight.
Notes
Use room temperature ingredients for a smoother filling. Don’t overbake; a slight jiggle in the center is okay.
