Preheat the oven to 325°F (163°C).
Prepare the crust by mixing graham cracker crumbs and melted butter.
Press the mixture into the bottom of a springform pan.
Bake the crust for 8–10 minutes until it’s golden.
In a large bowl, beat the cream cheese and sugar until smooth.
Add the eggs one at a time, beating after each addition.
Blend in the vanilla extract and sour cream until combined.
Pour the filling over the pre-baked crust and smooth the top.
Bake for 45–50 minutes or until the edges are set.
While the cheesecake bakes, prepare the cherry topping.
In a saucepan, cook the cherries with brown sugar until they release juices.
Remove the cheesecake from the oven and let it cool.
Top the cooled cheesecake with the cherry mixture and refrigerate.
Prepare the crumble topping and sprinkle over the cherries just before serving.
