Method
 

Step-by-step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) and prepare a 9-inch springform pan by greasing and lining the bottom with parchment paper.
  2. Crush the digestive biscuits into fine crumbs. Melt the unsalted butter and mix with the biscuit crumbs. Press into the base of the springform pan and refrigerate.
  3. Beat the softened cream cheese and caster sugar until smooth. Gradually add eggs, mixing well after each. Stir in vanilla extract and fold in fresh strawberries.
  4. Pour the cheesecake mixture onto the chilled biscuit base and spread evenly with a spatula.
  5. Combine plain flour and rolled oats in a bowl. Mix in cold butter until crumbly, then add light brown sugar.
  6. Sprinkle the crumble mixture over the cheesecake filling evenly.
  7. Bake in the preheated oven for 45–50 minutes until the edges are set and the center wobbles slightly.
  8. Cool completely on a wire rack, then refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight.
  9. Garnish with halved strawberries, slice, and serve.
