For the crust
2 cups finely ground gingersnaps
6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
For the filling
2 pounds cream cheese, softened
1 cup firmly packed dark brown sugar
1/2 cup maple syrup
3 large eggs, separated
1/2 cup sour cream
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon vanilla
3/4 teaspoon maple extract
1 cup pecans, toasted lightly and chopped fine

Steps:

  • Make the crust:
  • In a bowl stir together the gingersnap crumbs and the butter until the mixture is combined well and press the mixture onto the bottom and halfway up the side of a 9-inch springform pan.
  • Make the filling:
  • In a large bowl with an electric mixer cream together the cream cheese and the brown sugar until the mixture is light and fluffy and beat in the maple syrup. Add the egg yolks, 1 at a time, beating well after each addition, and beat in the sour cream, the salt, the vanilla, the maple extract, and the pecans. In a bowl with the electric mixer, beaters cleaned, beat the egg whites with a pinch of salt until they just hold stiff peaks, whisk about one fourth of them onto the cream cheese mixture, and fold in the remaining whites gently but thoroughly.
  • Pour the filling into the prepared crust and bake the cheesecake in the middle of a preheated 350°F. oven for 1 hour. Turn off the oven, let the cheesecake cool completely in the oven with the door ajar, and chill it, covered, overnight.

This is a real special treat. Please use real maple syrup, the better the quality of the syrup, the better the cake will be. This lovely cake is definitely worth the extra effort. It needs to sit in the fridge overnight to chill properly. A real Canadian treasure, it promises not to disappoint.

Yield Makes about 12 servings.

Number Of Ingredients 13

Crust:
3/4 cup graham cracker crumbs
1/2 cup ground pecans
3 tablespoons maple sugar
3 tablespoons butter, melted
Filling:
3 (8-ounce) packages cream cheese, softened
1 cup maple sugar
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon pumpkin-pie spice
1 cup pureed ripe persimmon
3 eggs
Toasted pecans and/or maple sugar candies for garnish

Steps:

  • Heat the oven to 325. Combine the crusts ingredients, mixing well, and press the mixture into the bottom and 1/2 inch up the sides of a 9-inch springform pan. Bake the crust for 10 minutes and set it aside to cool. Reduce the oven temperature to 300. With an electric mixer on low speed, blend the cream cheese, sugar, flour, and spice. Add the the persimmon and eggs and blend well. Pour the batter into the crust-lined pan. Bake at 300 for 1 hour. Then turn off the heat and leave the cheesecake in the oven until it's set, 30 minutes or more. Then chill it.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients, especially for the cream cheese and maple syrup. This will make a big difference in the final flavor of the cheesecake.
  • Make sure the cream cheese is softened to room temperature before mixing it with the other ingredients. This will help ensure a smooth and creamy cheesecake.
  • Do not overmix the cheesecake batter. Overmixing can cause the cheesecake to be dense and dry.
  • Bake the cheesecake in a water bath. This will help prevent the cheesecake from cracking.
  • Let the cheesecake cool completely before serving. This will help the cheesecake to set properly.

Conclusion:

This delicious Maple Pecan Cheesecake is best left to chill for at least four hours before serving, and it’s even better the next day. If chilled, it will keep in the refrigerator for approximately one week. Enjoy this creamy, sweet treat for any occasion.
