  • 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
  • 1 ½ teaspoons fresh lemon zest
  • 1 ½ teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1 ½ cups fresh blueberries
  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C). Mix graham cracker crumbs and sugar in a bowl; stir in melted butter until it resembles wet sand. Press into the bottom of a springform pan.

  3. Gently fold in fresh blueberries and sprinkle flour to stabilize the batter.
  4. Pour filling over the crust and bake for about 100 minutes or until slightly jiggly in the center. Cool in oven with door ajar for an hour.

  6. Chill cheesecake for at least five hours or overnight before serving with blueberry topping.
