In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream
cheese and granulated sugar together until smooth and creamy.
Add the sour cream and vanilla extract, mixing until thoroughly combined.
Add the
eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition.
Pour the cheesecake filling over the cooled crust in the springform pan.
Prepare the Crumble Topping:
In a medium bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, and ground cinnamon (if using).
Add the cold, cubed butter to the dry ingredients. Use a pastry cutter or your fingers to mix until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Evenly sprinkle the crumble topping over the cheesecake filling.
Bake the Cheesecake:
Bake in the preheated oven for about 1 hour, or until the center is almost set but still slightly jiggly.
Turn off the oven and allow the cheesecake to cool inside with the door slightly open for about 1 hour.
Remove the cheesecake from the oven and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight.
Serve:
Carefully remove the sides of the springform pan before serving.
Slice and enjoy your delightful Crumble-Topped Cheesecake!
