Step‑by‑Step Instructions for Tropical Fruit Cheesecake Crumb Cake
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare a 9-inch springform pan.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, brown sugar, and granulated sugar.
- Cut cold, unsalted butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs, then mix in the eggs and vanilla extract.
- Press two-thirds of the crumbly mixture into the bottom and sides of the springform pan.
- Blend softened cream cheese, granulated sugar, corn starch, and eggs until just combined.
- Pour less than half of the cheesecake mixture into the chilled crust and scatter diced kiwi over it.
- Pour the remaining cheesecake mixture on top and arrange pineapple and mango slices over it.
- Sprinkle the reserved crumb mixture over the top before baking.
- Bake for 55-65 minutes until golden brown and a toothpick comes out clean.
- Let the cake cool in the pan for at least 30 minutes before serving.

Notes
For best results, refrigerate the crust well and use fresh, ripe fruits. Avoid over-mixing to keep the cheesecake smooth.
