- Preheat the oven to 160ºC/325ºF conventional oven. Prepare a 23 cm/9 inch springform tin lined with parchment paper.

- Bake crust for 10 minutes. Cool completely while the oven remains on.
- Mix blueberries, sugar, flour, and lemon juice in a bowl. Set aside.
- For crumble, mix flour and brown sugar. Add melted butter and combine until crumbly. Set aside.
- In a stand mixer, cream the cream cheese on low speed. Add sugar and mix until smooth. Mix in sour cream, cornstarch, and vanilla extract.
- Add eggs two at a time, mixing until combined. Scrape down sides and mix thoroughly.
- Pour cheesecake batter into crust. Top with blueberries and crumble.
- Bake in a water bath for 1 hour and 20-30 minutes. Let cool in the oven for 1 hour, then cool to room temperature on a rack.
- Chill in the fridge for at least 6 hours or overnight before serving.
Notes
Ensure the cream cheese and eggs are at room temperature for a smooth cheesecake. Use a water bath to prevent cracking. Chill thoroughly before serving for the best texture.
