Ingredients
Graham crackers or digestive biscuits, crushed
Unsalted butter, melted
Cream cheese, softened
Granulated sugar
Eggs
Vanilla extract
Sour cream
Optional: Cherry pie filling or fresh berries, chocolate sauce, caramel, whipped cream, etc.
Instructions
Crush graham crackers into fine crumbs and mix with melted butter.
Press the mixture into the bottom of a 6-inch springform pan.
In a large bowl, beat cream cheese until smooth. Add sugar and mix until combined.
Add eggs one at a time, mixing gently. Stir in vanilla and sour cream.
Pour batter into the prepared crust and smooth the top.
Preheat air fryer to 300°F (150°C).
Place the pan in the air fryer basket and cook for 30–35 minutes, or until the edges are set and the center is slightly jiggly.
Cool at room temperature, then chill in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours or overnight.
Top with cherry pie filling or your favorite toppings before serving.
Notes
Don’t overmix the batter to avoid cracking.
Greek yogurt can be used instead of sour cream.
Use a 6-inch springform pan that fits inside your air fryer basket.
Let cool completely before chilling to set properly.
Toppings can include lemon curd, berry sauce, or chocolate drizzle.
