Chef’s Tips for pumpkin cheesecake
If you’re looking for an easy and delicious pumpkin cheesecake recipe, look no further! This easy-baked pumpkin cheesecake is the perfect fall dessert. Here are a few tips from the all foodi chef to make sure your cheesecake turns out perfectly:
Tip 1: Make sure your cream cheese is at room temperature before beginning to make the filling. This will ensure that your filling is smooth and lump-free.
Tip 2: Use a food processor to finely grind the graham crackers for the crust. This will give you a smoother, more uniform crust.
Tip 3: Be careful not to over-mix the filling ingredients. Over-mixing can cause your cheesecake to be dense and tough, instead of light and fluffy.
Tip 4: When you remove the top of the springform pan, be sure to wrap your cheesecake in plastic wrap. This will prevent any air from coming into contact with your cheesecake and drying it out.
Tip 5:Â Don’t overbake the cheesecake. Overbaking will cause the cheesecake to crack on top and dry.

Ingredients
Pumpkin puree: Pumpkin puree is a great ingredient for pumpkin cheesecake because it adds a lot of flavor and sweetness. It also makes the cheesecake very moist and creamy. Sugar: Sugar helps bring out the flavor of pumpkin and adds sweetness.
Cream cheese: Cream cheese is a staple ingredient in many cheesecakes, and it’s no different with this recipe. It gives the cheesecake a creamy, smooth texture that’s hard to resist! All-purpose flour: Flour is used in this recipe to help thicken the cheesecake and give it structure. Ground cinnamon: Cinnamon gives this cheesecake a warm, festive flavor that goes great with pumpkin.

TOOLS
There are a few tools you’ll need to make this pumpkin cheesecake recipe: a food processor, a 9-inch springform pan, and a large roasting pan.
The food processor is used to make the graham cracker crust and the cheesecake filling. The graham crackers need to be pulsed into crumbs, and the cream cheese, sugar, eggs, and spices need to be combined until smooth.
The springform pan is necessary for baking the cheesecake. It has high sides so the cake can rise without spilling over, and it has a removable bottom so you can easily release the cake once it’s baked.
A large roasting pan is needed to create a water bath for baking the cake. This helps prevent cracks in the top of the cake by keeping it moist as it bakes.
STORAGE INSTRUCTIONS
When it comes to storing your pumpkin cheesecake, there are a few things you need to keep in mind.
Make sure the cheesecake is completely cooled before storing it. If you try to store it while it’s still warm, the condensation will make the top of the cake soggy.
Wrap the cake tightly in plastic wrap or aluminum foil. This will help keep it fresh and prevent it from drying out.
Store the cake in the fridge for up to 5 days. After that, it’s best to freeze any leftovers for up to 3 months.
