heavy cream

🥗Healthier: Greek yogurt

💰Cheaper: milk + cornstarch

Greek yogurt reduces calories while maintaining creaminess

cream cheese

🥗Healthier: ricotta cheese

💰Cheaper: mascarpone cheese

Ricotta is lighter and lower in fat, while mascarpone offers a similar texture.

Preheat oven to 325°F (163°C).

Prepare a springform pan by greasing it lightly.

Crush graham cracker crumbs and mix with melted butter and sugar until combined.

Press the mixture firmly into the bottom of the springform pan to create the crust.

In a mixing bowl, beat cream cheese until smooth and creamy.

Add sugar, vanilla extract, and lemon juice; mix until well combined.

Incorporate eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition.

Fold in sour cream and heavy cream until the mixture is smooth.

Slice bananas and gently fold them into the cheesecake batter.

Pour the batter over the prepared crust in the springform pan.

Bake in the preheated oven for 50-60 minutes until the center is set but slightly jiggly.

Turn off the oven and let the cheesecake cool inside for 1 hour to prevent cracking.

Remove from the oven and chill in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours or overnight.

Before serving, top with whipped cream, banana slices, and a sprinkle of cinnamon.
