Creamy Banana Cheesecake

Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Make the crust. Mix the graham cracker crumbs with the melted butter until evenly combined. Press firmly into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan or pie dish. Chill in the fridge for 15-20 minutes while preparing the filling.
  2. Make the filling. In a large bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and granulated sugar together until smooth and creamy.
  3. Add the banana. Mix in the mashed ripe bananas until fully incorporated and smooth.
  4. Fold in the whipped cream. Gently fold the whipped cream into the banana-cream cheese mixture until light and fluffy, being careful not to deflate it too much.
  5. Fill the crust. Spread the filling evenly over the chilled crust, smoothing the top with a spatula.
  6. Chill. Refrigerate for at least 4-6 hours, or overnight for the best texture, before slicing and serving.
