Ingredients
Scale
- 1 ½ cups graham cracker crumbs
- ½ cup unsalted butter, melted
- ¼ cup sugar
- A pinch of salt
- 16 ounces cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 3 large eggs
- ½ cup sour cream
- 2 cups fresh blueberries (or frozen)
- ½ cup sugar
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- ½ teaspoon cinnamon
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 1 cup flour (all-purpose or almond)
- ½ cup brown sugar
- ½ cup butter, softened
- A pinch of salt
Instructions
- Begin by preheating your oven to 325°F (163°C) and grease a springform pan with butter.
- Combine the graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, sugar, and salt in a mixing bowl. Mix until resembling wet sand, then press into the bottom of the pan. Bake for about 10 minutes until slightly golden. Remove and cool.
- Beat the softened cream cheese and granulated sugar using an electric mixer until smooth and creamy, about 2-3 minutes.
- Mix in the vanilla extract, then add the eggs one at a time, mixing until just combined. Finally, add the sour cream and mix until combined.
- Pour the cheesecake filling over the cooled crust, spreading it evenly and tapping to release air bubbles.
- Bake the cheesecake for about 50-60 minutes until firm around the edges and slightly jiggly in the center.
- Prepare the blueberry topping by combining blueberries, sugar, lemon juice, cornstarch, and cinnamon in a saucepan over medium heat. Stir until it bubbles and blueberries break down, about 5-7 minutes. Remove from heat and cool.
- Spread the blueberry topping over the cooled cheesecake.
- Mix the crumble topping ingredients in a bowl until crumbly, then sprinkle over the blueberry topping.
- Return cheesecake to the oven and bake for an additional 15-20 minutes until the crumble is golden brown. Allow to cool before chilling for at least 4 hours or overnight.
Notes
Chilling the cheesecake overnight enhances the flavor and makes cutting easier. Consider using gluten-free options for the crust and crumble.
