- 3 cups Nilla Wafers (crushed)
- ¼ cup granulated sugar
- 5 tablespoons unsalted butter (melted)
- 32 ounces brick-style cream cheese (softened)
- 1 cup mashed ripe bananas (approximately 2 large bananas)
- ½ cup full-fat sour cream
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 box (3.4 oz) dry instant banana cream pudding mix
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 4 large eggs (room temperature)
- Whipped cream for topping
- Sliced bananas for garnish
- Preheat your oven to 325°F (163°C). Line the bottom of a springform pan with parchment paper.
- In a mixing bowl, combine crushed Nilla Wafers, granulated sugar, and melted butter. Press this mixture firmly into the bottom of the prepared pan.
- Bake the crust for about 10 minutes until lightly golden. Allow it to cool.
- In a stand mixer, beat softened cream cheese until smooth. Add mashed bananas, sour cream, sugar, pudding mix, and vanilla; blend until combined.
- Lightly whisk the eggs in a separate bowl before adding them slowly to the cheesecake mixture, mixing gently until just combined.
- Pour the filling over the cooled crust and smooth the top.
- Place the springform pan into a larger roasting pan filled with hot water about halfway up the sides of the cheesecake pan.
- Bake for 70-80 minutes until edges are set and center jiggles slightly when shaken.
- Turn off the oven and crack the door open; let it cool in there for an hour before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Chill in the refrigerator for at least 5 hours or overnight before serving.
