Method

Crust Preparation

  1. 1

    Make the crust

    Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). In a mixing bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, pine nuts, and sugar. Mix until well combined.

  2. 2

    Bake the crust

    Press the mixture into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan. Bake for 10 minutes, then remove from oven and let cool.

Filling Preparation

  1. 3

    Prepare the filling

    In a large bowl, beat together labneh, softened cream cheese, sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth. Add eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition.

  2. 4

    Bake the cheesecake

    Pour the filling over the cooled crust. Bake for 40-45 minutes or until the center is set. Let cool at room temperature, then refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight.

Roasting Blueberries

  1. 5

    Roast the blueberries

    In a small baking dish, combine blueberries, sugar, and lemon juice. Roast in the oven at 350°F (175°C) for 15-20 minutes until the blueberries are soft and bubbly.

Serving

  1. 6

    Serve
