Servings 18

Ingredients

  

• 20 graham cracker (approx 1 cup of crumbs)
• ¼ cup salted butter melted
• ½ cup mashed banana about 1 large bananas
• ¾ cup granulated sugar
• 16 ounce cream cheese softened
• 3 large eggs
• 2 Tsp vanilla extract

Instructions

 

• Preheat your oven to 325°F and line 18 medium-sized muffin cups with paper liners.
• In a small bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs with the melted butter.
• Place a heaping tablespoon of this mixture into each muffin cup and press it firmly to form a crust. Bake for 5 minutes, then remove and let the crusts cool.
• While the crusts are baking, mix the cream cheese and granulated sugar until smooth.
• Add the eggs, vanilla extract, and mashed bananas, stirring just until combined. Avoid overmixing.
• Spoon about 3 tablespoons of the filling into each muffin cup, over the cookie crust. You can fill them nearly to the top since they won’t rise much, but leave a small gap for easy removal of the liners.
• Bake at 325°F for 20 minutes. Afterward, turn off the oven, crack the door open, and let the cheesecakes sit in the oven for an additional 10 minutes.
• Once out of the oven, let them cool at room temperature for at least 30 minutes before transferring them to the refrigerator to chill completely, for at least an hour.
• Finish with an optional garnish of banana slices, or your favorite topping.
