Description

This is an easy cheesecake pie--the batter is prepared in a blender and the pie makes its own crust while baking ... then it's topped with your favorite fresh fruit or pie filling.

Ingredients

1 teaspoon butter, or as needed
2 (8 ounce) packages cream cheese, softened
1 cup milk
1 cup white sugar
4 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 teaspoons cornstarch
1 pinch ground cinnamon, or to taste
1 cup sliced fresh strawberries

Directions

1 Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Butter an 8-inch square baking dish.
2 Combine cream cheese, milk, sugar, eggs, vanilla extract, and cornstarch in a blender; blend until smooth. Pour batter into the prepared baking dish.
3 Bake in the preheated oven until edges are puffed and surface of cheesecake pie is firm except for a small spot in the center that will jiggle when the pan is gently shaken, 60 to 65 minutes. Remove from the oven and sprinkle with cinnamon. Run the tip of a table knife around the edges of the pan, set the pan on a wire rack, and allow the cheesecake to cool at room temperature, about 1 hour.
4 Top cooled cheesecake with strawberries. Cover and refrigerate until chilled, about 4 hours.
