Step 1

Start by heating your oven to 350°F (175°C). Let the pineapple drain well in a colander while you prepare the crust. Crush the graham crackers and mix them with the melted butter, then press this mixture firmly into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan.

Step 2

Next, beat the cream cheese and sugar together until smooth and creamy. Add the eggs, flour, salt, and vanilla, mixing until everything is fully combined. Spread the drained pineapple evenly over the crust, then pour the cream cheese mixture on top.

Step 3

Pop it in the oven and bake for about 30 minutes, until the cheesecake is set. Once it’s done, take it out and let it cool for around half an hour—but keep the oven on. While the cheesecake cools, stir together the sour cream, brown sugar, and cinnamon for the topping. Spread this over the cheesecake.
