Ingredients
  

For the Crust

  • 200 g digestive biscuits Graham crackers can also be used.
  • 100 g unsalted butter Melted for crust.

For the Cheesecake Filling

  • 600 g cream cheese Full-fat for the best texture.
  • 150 g granulated sugar Sweetener for the filling.
  • 2 large eggs Room temperature for better mixing.
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract Enhances flavor.
  • 100 g sour cream Adds tang and creaminess.

For the Blueberry Swirl

  • 200 g fresh blueberries Can use frozen if out of season.
  • 50 g granulated sugar For balancing tartness.
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice Brightens the flavor.
  • 1 tbsp cornstarch Thickens the blueberry mixture.

For the Crumble Topping

  • 50 g all-purpose flour Binds the crumble.
  • 50 g rolled oats Adds texture.
  • 50 g light brown sugar Provides a caramel-y note.
  • 50 g unsalted butter Cold, cut into small pieces for crumble.

Instructions
 

Preparation

  • Preheat the oven to 160°C (320°F) and line the base of a 20 cm springform pan with parchment paper. Grease the sides lightly.
  • Crush the digestive biscuits using a food processor or by smashing them in a zip-top bag with a rolling pin.
  • Melt 100 g of unsalted butter and combine it with the crushed biscuits, mixing until it resembles wet sand.
  • Press the mixture firmly into the base of the prepared pan and bake for 10 minutes. Set aside to cool.
  • In a small saucepan, combine blueberries, 50 g of granulated sugar, lemon juice, and cornstarch mixed with a splash of water. Cook over medium heat until thickened.
  • In a large bowl, beat cream cheese and 150 g of granulated sugar until smooth. Add eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
  • Stir in vanilla and sour cream until well combined and creamy.

Assembling

  • Make the crumble by mixing flour, oats, light brown sugar, and cold butter in a separate bowl, rubbing together until coarse crumbs form.
  • Pour half of the cheesecake filling over the cooled crust, and spoon half of the blueberry mixture over it, swirling with a knife.
  • Sprinkle half of the crumble topping over this layer. Repeat with the remaining filling, blueberry mixture, and crumble.

Baking

  • Bake for 45 to 55 minutes until the edges are set but the center is slightly wobbly.
  • Turn off the oven, leave the cheesecake inside with the door ajar for 1 hour, then transfer to the fridge to chill for at least 4 hours or overnight.

Notes

Room temperature ingredients mix more smoothly. Don't skip the prebake of the crust to avoid soggy bottoms.
