Method

Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the crust

    Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). In a medium bowl, mix together the graham cracker crumbs, sugar, and melted butter until well combined. Press this mixture into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan to form an even layer.

  2. 2

    Make the filling

    In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with an electric mixer until smooth. Gradually add the sugar, sour cream, and vanilla extract, mixing until combined. Then add the mashed bananas, eggs, and lemon juice, and continue to beat until the mixture is smooth and creamy.

  3. 3

    Combine and bake

    Pour the filling over the prepared crust in the springform pan. Bake in the preheated oven for about 55-65 minutes, or until the center is set and a slight jiggle remains.

  4. 4

    Cool and serve

    Once baked, remove the cheesecake from the oven and let it cool at room temperature for about an hour. Then refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight before serving. Remove from the springform pan, slice, and enjoy!
