Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 160°C (325°F). Line the bottom of your springform pan with parchment paper.
  2. In a food processor, blend digestive or graham cracker crumbs with granulated sugar until fine. Mix with melted butter and press into the bottom of your springform pan. Bake for 10 minutes.
  3. In a mixing bowl, combine fresh blueberries, sugar, flour, and lemon juice. Toss gently and set aside.
  4. In another bowl, mix flour and dark brown sugar. Add melted butter and mix until crumbly.
  5. In a large bowl, beat cream cheese and sugar until smooth. Mix in sour cream, cornstarch, vanilla, and eggs until thick and smooth.
  6. Pour the cream cheese mixture over the cooled crust. Layer the blueberries and crumble mixture on top.
  7. Bake for 1 hour and 20-30 minutes, until the cheesecake appears slightly wobbly in the center.
  8. Turn off the oven, crack the door open, and let cheesecake cool for 1 hour. Chill in the refrigerator for at least 6 hours before serving.
