How to Make Blueberry Cheesecake From Cooking Light

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Prepare a 9-inch springform pan by lining the bottom with parchment paper.
  2. For the crust: In a medium bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, sugar, and melted butter. Press mixture into the bottom of the prepared pan.
  3. Bake crust for 8-10 minutes, or until lightly golden. Remove from oven and let cool completely.
  4. For the filling: In a large bowl, beat cream cheese and sugar until smooth and creamy. Add eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
  5. Stir in vanilla extract and lemon juice. Gently fold in blueberries.
  6. Pour filling over the cooled crust. Place the pan in a larger roasting pan; add enough hot water to reach halfway up the sides of the springform pan (this helps create a moist environment for even baking).
  7. Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until the cheesecake is set around the edges and the center is just slightly jiggly. Do not overbake.
  8. Turn off the oven and let the cheesecake cool in the oven with the door slightly ajar for 1 hour.
  9. Remove the cheesecake from the oven and let it cool completely on a wire rack. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, before serving.
  10. Once chilled, carefully remove the sides of the springform pan and serve. Garnish with fresh blueberries, if desired.
