Ingredients:
- 1 cup bread crumbs
- 1 cup crumbled feta cheese
- 1/2 cup chopped spinach
- 6 tablespoons olive oil
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 2 containers (16 oz) Norman's Kosher Cholov Yisroel Cream Cheese
- 3/4 cup sugar
- 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 3 large eggs
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 1/4 cup lemon juice
- 1/4 cup chopped roasted red pepper
Instructions:
- Preheat the oven to 325°F.
- In a medium mixing bowl, combine the bread crumbs, feta cheese, spinach, 4 tablespoons of the olive oil, and salt. Mix well and press into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan. Bake for 10 minutes and then remove from oven and let cool.
- In a large mixing bowl, beat the Norman's Kosher Cholov Yisroel Cream Cheese, sugar, and flour until smooth. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Add the heavy cream, lemon juice, and remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil and mix until well combined. Pour the mixture over the cooled crust.
- Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until the cheesecake is set but still slightly jiggly in the center. Let cool to room temperature before refrigerating for at least 4 hours to overnight.
- When you're ready to serve, release the cheesecake from the springform pan. Top with chopped roasted red pepper and crumbled feta.
- Slice and serve chilled.
