Ingredients
  

Crust
  • 1 cup graham cracker crumbs
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
Filling
  • 2 packages cream cheese, softened 8 ounces each
  • 3/4 cup brown sugar, packed
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 cup pecans, chopped
  • 1/2 cup maple syrup

Equipment

Method
 

  1. Prepare the crust by mixing graham cracker crumbs, granulated sugar, and melted butter. Press into a 9-inch springform pan and bake at 325°F for 10 minutes.
  2. Make the cheesecake filling by beating cream cheese until smooth, then adding brown sugar and vanilla. Mix in eggs one at a time, then add sour cream and cinnamon.
