I had the pleasure of trying Pumpkin Cheesecake for the first time last week. OMG, why didn’t anyone tell me how good this is? When I came home I searched pinterest and google for the perfect recipe. I found one that I think you’re going to love. It’s Paula Deen’s recipe from Food Network. I semi followed the recipe with the exceptions of not including nutmeg (because I was out) and using a premade pie crust I had on hand.
Recipe from Food Network
Crust:
1 3/4 cups graham cracker crumbs
3 tablespoons light brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 stick melted salted butter
Filling:
3 (8-ounce) packages cream cheese, at room temperature
1 (15-ounce) can pureed pumpkin
3 eggs plus 1 egg yolk
1/4 cup sour cream
1 1/2 cups sugar
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/8 teaspoon fresh ground nutmeg
1/8 teaspoon ground cloves
2 tablespoon all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 (15-ounce) can pureed pumpkin
3 eggs plus 1 egg yolk
1/4 cup sour cream
1 1/2 cups sugar
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/8 teaspoon fresh ground nutmeg
1/8 teaspoon ground cloves
2 tablespoon all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
For crust:
In medium bowl, combine crumbs, sugar and cinnamon. Add melted butter. Press down flat into a 9-inch springform pan. Set aside.
For filling:
Beat cream cheese until smooth. Add pumpkin puree, eggs, egg yolk, sour cream, sugar and the spices. Add flour and vanilla. Beat together until well combined.
Pour into crust. Spread out evenly and place in oven for 1 hour. Remove from the oven and let sit for 15 minutes. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 4 hours.
Note: since I used a premade crust I had enough filling to make two pumpkin cheesecakes.
I added some whip cream, a dash of pumpkin spice, and walnuts
This will be at our Thanksgiving table. I can’t believe I’ve never had it before, boy was I missing out. Do you have a favorite Thanksgiving dessert? I’d love to hear about it.
Thanks for stopping by, I hope you’re having a fabulous week!
