Ingredients
- 1 ½ cups graham cracker crumbs
- ½ cup unsalted butter, melted
- 3 (8 oz) packages cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 3 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 cups fresh raspberries
- 1 cup old-fashioned oats
- ½ cup all-purpose flour
- ½ cup brown sugar, packed
- ½ teaspoon cinnamon
- ½ cup cold unsalted butter, cubed
How to Make Raspberry Crumble Cheesecake
- Preheat your oven to 325°F (163°C). Grease a 9-inch springform pan with cooking spray or butter.
- In a medium bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs and melted butter until the mixture resembles wet sand. Press this mixture firmly into the bottom of the prepared pan to form a crust. Bake for 10 minutes, then remove from the oven and let it cool slightly.
- In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and granulated sugar together until smooth and creamy. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
- Gently fold in the fresh raspberries, being careful not to break them apart too much. Pour the cheesecake mixture over the cooled crust in the springform pan.
- In another bowl, combine the oats, all-purpose flour, brown sugar, and cinnamon. Add the cold cubed butter and use a pastry cutter or your fingers to mix until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Sprinkle the oat crumble evenly over the cheesecake layer. Bake in the preheated oven for 50-60 minutes, or until the edges are set but the center still has a slight jiggle.
- Turn off the oven and crack the oven door, allowing the cheesecake to cool in the oven for about 1 hour. This helps prevent cracking.
- Once cooled, refrigerate the cheesecake for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight, before serving.
Tips for the Best Results
- Make sure your cream cheese is at room temperature for easy mixing and a smooth texture.
- Use fresh raspberries for the best flavor, but frozen may be used if fresh is unavailable—just be sure to thaw and drain them well.
- Allow the cheesecake to cool gradually to prevent cracks on the surface.
Easy Variations
- Substitute the raspberries with strawberries or blueberries for a different fruity flavor.
- Add a layer of lemon or orange zest to the cheesecake mixture for a citrus twist.
- For a chocolatey version, mix in some cocoa powder into the cheesecake batter or add chocolate chips.
What to Serve With It
- A dollop of whipped cream on top for extra creaminess.
- A drizzle of chocolate sauce or caramel for added sweetness.
- Fresh mint leaves for a pop of color and freshness on the plate.
