Ingredients

  • 1 ½ cups graham cracker crumbs
  • ⅓ cup granulated sugar
  • ½ cup unsalted butter melted
  • 2 8 oz packages cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • ¾ cup granulated sugar
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 ripe bananas mashed
  • 1 ½ cups fresh strawberries pureed and strained

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 325°F (160°C).
  • Prepare the crust by mixing graham cracker crumbs, sugar, and melted butter in a bowl.
  • Tightly pack the crust mixture into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan.
  • Bake the crust in the preheated oven for about 10 minutes.
  • In a large mixing bowl, beat softened cream cheese and sugar until smooth and creamy.
  • Add sour cream, vanilla extract, and mix until well-combined.
  • Add eggs one at a time, mixing gently to avoid over-beating.
  • Fold in the mashed bananas and strawberry puree gently until just combined.
  • Pour the filling over the pre-baked crust, smoothing the top with a spatula.
  • Bake the cheesecake in the oven for 55 to 60 minutes, or until the edges are set and the center is slightly wobbly.
  • Turn off the oven and let the cheesecake cool with the oven door ajar for about an hour.
  • Refrigerate the cheesecake for at least 4 hours before serving, ideally overnight.
