Recipe Variations:
-
Chocolate Banana-Strawberry Cheesecake: Add 1/2 cup of cocoa powder to the cheesecake filling to create a chocolate base. Layer the cheesecake with banana and strawberry as usual for a chocolatey twist.

Vegan Banana-Strawberry Cheesecake: Use a vegan cream cheese alternative and replace the eggs with a flax egg (1 tablespoon ground flaxseed mixed with 3 tablespoons water). For the crust, use vegan butter.
-
Caramelized Banana Topping: In a skillet, caramelize the banana slices with a little brown sugar and butter. Use this warm caramelized topping in place of fresh banana slices for a rich, indulgent dessert.
-
No-Bake Version: If you prefer a no-bake cheesecake, simply skip the baking step for the filling. Chill the assembled cheesecake for 6 hours or overnight until firm.
-
Nutty Crust: Add 1/2 cup of finely chopped nuts (like walnuts or almonds) to the graham cracker crust mixture for an added crunch.
