Ingredients 

Base

  • 240 grams digestive biscuits
  • 100 grams unsalted butter

Cheesecake base

  • 600 grams cream cheese
  • 180 grams granulated sugar
  • 4 eggs
  • 125 grams sour cream
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 20 grams all purpose flour
  • 200 grams blueberries

Crumb topping

  • 20 grams unsalted butter
  • 25 grams light brown caster sugar
  • 25 grams flour
  • 25 grams oatmeal
  • Pinch of salt

Equipment

  • 24 cm springform pan (9.5 inch)

Instructions

  • Start by making the base. Finely crush the digestive biscuits. Melt the butter and mix the biscuit crumbs into the melted butter until you have a crumbly, sticky mixture. Pour into a springform pan lined with baking paper and press down firmly. Grease the sides of the tin as well.
  • Make the filling or cheesecake base. Whisk the cream cheese and sugar together until creamy. Add the eggs one at a time, beating until incorporated. Mix the vanilla extract with the sour cream and add. Finally add 15g of the flour. Whisk until smooth, but not too long.
  • Add the remaining 10g flour to the blueberries. Stir until all the berries are covered with a thin layer of flour. Spread the batter with a spatula. Pour the mixture onto the cake base and smooth down with a spatula.
  • Put the butter, sugar, flour, oats and salt in a bowl and work with your fingers until you have crumbs. Spread this over the cheesecake. Bake the Blueberry Crumble Cheesecake in a pre-heated oven (conventional oven) for 60 minutes at 150°C/302˚F.
  • After baking, turn off the oven and leave the cheesecake to cool with the door slightly ajar. Once the cheesecake is at room temperature, place in the fridge to set for at least 4 hours.
Tips
If your oven door cannot be left ajar, place a wooden ladle between the door and the oven.
