📝 Preparation Steps
1
For the crust: Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line a standard 12-cup muffin tin with liners.
2
Place the graham crackers in the bowl of a food processor and pulse until fine crumbs form. Add the brown sugar and salt and continue to pulse. Drizzle in the melted butter and process until the crumbs are moist.
3
Scoop a heaping tablespoonful of the graham cracker crumb mixture into each muffin liner. Using the bottom of a measuring cup or drinking glass, press the crumbs flat into the bottom of each cup. Bake the crusts until golden, about ⏱️ 5 minutes. Transfer the muffin tin to a wire rack to cool while you prepare the filling.
4
For the filling: Using an electric mixer, beat the cream cheese, brown sugar, and maple syrup in a large bowl at medium-high speed until combined and fluffy, 2 to ⏱️ 3 minutes. Scrape down the sides of the bowl with a rubber spatula. Lower the mixer speed and beat in the egg and egg yolk just until incorporated. Beat in the pumpkin and vanilla until combined. Beat in the cornstarch, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, and salt.

5
Divide the cheesecake filling evenly among the 12 cups, filling each about 3/4 of the way full. Bake until the edges are set and dry and centers are slightly jiggly, 10 to ⏱️ 12 minutes.
6
Cool the cheesecakes in the pan on a wire rack for ⏱️ 30 minutes. Transfer to the refrigerator until cooled completely, at least ⏱️ 1 hour. To serve, remove the cheesecakes from the pan and peel away the liners. Arrange the cheesecakes on a serving platter and topped with whipped cream.
