Preparation Steps
- Preheat your oven to 160ºC (325ºF). Blend digestive or graham crackers with granulated sugar until fine. Mix in melted butter and press into a springform pan. Bake for 10 minutes and let cool.
- In a bowl, combine blueberries, sugar, flour, and lemon juice. Toss gently until coated.
- Mix flour and dark brown sugar in a separate bowl. Melt butter, add to dry ingredients, and blend until crumbly.
- Beat cream cheese and sugar until smooth. Mix sour cream and cornstarch, then blend into cream cheese. Add eggs one at a time, then stir in vanilla.
- Pour cheesecake filling into the cooled crust. Layer the blueberry mixture on top and press down gently. Sprinkle with crumble topping.
- Create a water bath by placing the springform in a larger baking dish with hot water. Bake for 80-90 minutes until center jiggles slightly.
- Cool cheesecake in the oven with the door ajar for 1 hour, then at room temperature for an additional hour, and refrigerate for at least 6 hours.

Notes
Use a food processor for a finer crust and be sure to wrap the pan in foil during baking to prevent water seepage. Allow at least 6 hours of chilling for the best texture.
