Preparation
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line the bottom of a 7-inch springform pan with parchment paper and wrap the base with aluminum foil.
- In a medium bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, 1 tablespoon of sugar, and melted butter. Press this mixture firmly into the bottom of the springform pan.
- In another bowl, mix the flour, brown sugar, granulated sugar, cornstarch, and ground cinnamon. Stir in the melted butter until it resembles coarse crumbs.
- In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and 3/4 cup sugar until smooth and creamy. Add the pumpkin, vanilla extract, spices, and salt, mixing well.
- Add the eggs into the filling one at a time, mixing until smooth after each addition. Pour the filling onto the crust.
- Sprinkle the crumble mixture generously over the cheesecake filling.
- Place the springform pan into a larger roasting pan and pour hot water into the roasting pan halfway up the sides of the springform.
- Bake for 115-120 minutes, or until the center is almost set and the crumble is golden brown. Let it cool on a wire rack for about 30 minutes.
- Transfer to the fridge to chill for at least four hours, preferably overnight.
- Dust the top with confectioners' sugar before serving.
Notes
Store leftover cheesecake in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. It also freezes well for up to 3 months.
