Method
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line an 8x8 round pan with parchment paper.
To make the crust:
Step 1
In a large bowl, combine the crushed graham crackers, melted butter, light brown sugar, and salt. Mix well. Press this mixture onto the prepared pan to form the crust. Bake in the oven for 8 minutes, then set it aside to cool. Lower the oven temperature to 325°F.
To make the cinnamon swirl:
Step 1
In a medium bowl, mix together the brown sugar, cinnamon, all-purpose flour, and melted butter for the cinnamon swirl. Set this mixture aside.
To make the filling:
Step 1
In a blender, blend the cream cheese, sour cream, vanilla extract, sugar, lemon juice, and lemon zest until smooth. Add the eggs one at a time and blend until well combined.
Step 2
Pour half of the cheesecake filling over the cooled crust. Spoon half of the cinnamon swirl mixture on top. Use a fork to gently swirl the two mixtures together. Pour the remaining cheesecake filling over this and then spoon the remaining cinnamon mixture on top. Swirl them together with a fork.
Step 3
Bake in the oven for approximately 35 minutes or until the center is mostly set.
Step 4
Allow the cheesecake to cool to room temperature, and then refrigerate it for at least 2 hours before serving.
