  4. Add pumpkin puree, eggs, vanilla, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, salt, and flour. Mix until smooth and well combined.
  5. Pour the batter over the cooled crust and smooth the top.
  6. Bake for 60–70 minutes or until the center is set but still slightly jiggly.
  7. Turn off the oven, crack the door, and let the cheesecake cool in the oven for 1 hour.
  8. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight before serving.

Notes

  • Use full-fat cream cheese for the creamiest texture.
  • Let ingredients come to room temperature before mixing for best results.
  • Top with whipped cream or caramel sauce for extra indulgence.
