Ingredients

• 2 cups graham cracker crumbs
• 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
• 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
• 24 ounces cream cheese, softened
• 1 cup granulated sugar
• 1 cup brown sugar, packed
• 1 cup pure pumpkin puree
• 1 cup sour cream
• 1 cup heavy cream
• 4 large eggs
• 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
• 0.5 teaspoon ground nutmeg
• 0.5 teaspoon ground ginger
• 0.25 teaspoon ground cloves

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 325°F (165°C).

Step 2

In a bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and 1 tablespoon of granulated sugar. Mix until the consistency resembles wet sand.

Step 3

Press the mixture into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan, ensuring that it is evenly spread. Set aside.

Step 4

In a large mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese until smooth and creamy, about 2-3 minutes.

Step 5

Add the granulated sugar and brown sugar to the cream cheese, and mix thoroughly.

Step 6

Mix in the pumpkin puree, sour cream, and heavy cream until fully incorporated.

Step 7

Add the eggs one at a time, beating briefly after each addition. Do not overmix.

Step 8

Sift in the flour, ground cinnamon, ground nutmeg, ground ginger, and ground cloves. Add the vanilla extract and mix until everything is combined.

Step 9

Pour the cheesecake batter over the prepared crust in the springform pan. Smooth the top with a spatula.

Step 10

Bake in the preheated oven for 80-90 minutes, or until the edges are set and the center jiggles slightly when shaken.

Step 11

Turn off the oven and leave the cheesecake inside with the door cracked open for 1 hour to cool gradually.

Step 12

Remove the cheesecake from the oven and run a knife around the edge of the pan to loosen it. Let it cool to room temperature, then refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight.

Step 13

Before serving, optionally garnish with whipped cream and a sprinkle of cinnamon.
