A delicious recipe of Anglo-Saxon origin: Pumpkin cheesecake with cinnamon... When autumn arrives, this dessert simply becomes a must-have across the Atlantic. But then, why such a craze? The key is the recipe's star ingredient: pumpkin = pumpkin! And yes, pumpkin for dessert, rather surprising, but above all delicious!
Married to spices (cinnamon, cloves, etc.), we enjoy squash in hot drinks, in cake, tart, etc. Today I present it to you in a pumpkin cheesecake version, accompanied by cinnamon. The perfect duo!
You can of course make the squash puree yourself, or you can make it from store-bought cubes, or store-bought squash puree.
I still love the creaminess and comforting side of cheesecake, I wanted to add a little dose of homemade whipped cream for more indulgence. You will find others cheesecake recipes here.
Let's go for the recipe! If you make it at home, don't hesitate to tag me @liliebakery on Instagram so I can see your cheesecakes :)

Hello,
Can pumpkin be replaced by squash?
Thank you again for these lovely recipes and for the viewing pleasure :)
Hello Amandine, indeed, I mention 'squash puree' in the ingredients, you can opt for pumpkin, squash or another type of squash. See you soon

Very nice your seasonal cheesecake.
hey your recipe looks super good but what kind of biscuits did you use? Thanks in advance Oceane
Hello Océane, I used Petits Lu, but any basic dry biscuits will do. See you soon
Yes it's true that apart from in soup I don't use pumpkin much, but for once I'm going to try this recipe, I'm not a big fan of cinnamon either but a little colored icing sugar will do the trick for decoration. Great thanks
Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! I love it, I just made some individual ones on a chocolate shortbread base. It's my gourmet dessert of the moment
Hello, I have in mind to stack two cheesecakes. Do you think it will hold and not collapse? Thanks in advance
Hello Laëtitia, cheesecakes in general are quite dense (therefore heavy) I'm not sure that stacking them would be a good idea. Goodbye :)
Hello!
Thanks for your recipe! Do you think I can replace the sugar with honey? Thanks :)
Valérie
Hello Valérie, yes you can use honey in the cheesecake, you have to adjust the quantity by tasting your preparation. Goodbye :)
Super good recipe. I added speculoos to make the base and a little less sugar than recommended for the filling.
Thank you Sebastian for your feedback!
