- 1 cup graham cracker crumbs
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 16 ounces cream cheese, softened
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 large eggs
- Zest of 1 lemon
- 1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
- 1 cup fresh blueberries
- Preheat your oven to 325°F (160°C). Line a muffin tin with paper liners.
- In a medium bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, 1/4 cup sugar, and melted butter. Mix until well combined.
- Press about 1 tablespoon of the crumb mixture into the bottom of each muffin liner to form the crust.
- In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with an electric mixer until smooth and creamy.
- Add 1/2 cup sugar, vanilla extract, lemon zest, and lemon juice to the cream cheese. Mix until fully incorporated.
- Add the eggs one at a time, mixing on low speed until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Gently fold in the fresh blueberries.
- Divide the cheesecake batter evenly among the muffin liners, filling each about 3/4 full.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the edges are set and the centers are slightly jiggly. They will firm up as they cool.
- Remove from the oven and let cool at room temperature for about 30 minutes. Then, refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving.
Notes
- For a gluten-free version, use gluten-free graham cracker crumbs or almond flour for the crust.
- Top each cheesecake with additional fresh blueberries or a drizzle of lemon glaze for extra flavor and presentation.
