Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 ⅔ cups graham cracker crumbs
  • ⅓ cup sugar
  • ⅔ cup melted butter
  • 24 ounces cream cheese (room temperature)
  • 1 ¼ cup sugar
  • 3 large eggs (room temperature)
  • 2 tablespoons lemon zest
  • 3 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 ¼ cup fresh blueberries (divided)
  • ⅛ cup sugar (for blueberry swirl)
  • 2 tablespoons water
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice (for blueberry swirl)
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Prepare a springform pan by spraying it with non-stick cooking spray and lining it with parchment paper.
  2. In a bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, sugar, and melted butter. Press the mixture firmly into the bottom of the prepared pan to form the crust.
  3. In a mixing bowl, beat together cream cheese and sugar until smooth. Add eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in lemon zest, lemon juice, and vanilla extract.
  4. In a saucepan over medium heat, combine half the blueberries (about ⅔ cup), sugar, water, lemon juice, and cornstarch. Cook until thickened, about 5-7 minutes.
  5. Pour half of the cheesecake filling into the crust. Drizzle half of the blueberry mixture on top and swirl gently with a knife. Repeat with the remaining filling and blueberry mixture.
  6. Bake for about 60 minutes until set but slightly jiggly in the center. Turn off the oven and let it cool inside with the door slightly ajar for an hour.
  7. Chill in the refrigerator for at least four hours before serving.
