Then, you can proceed to making the filling. Do this by beating cream cheese in a bowl and then add sugar. Carefully add the eggs one at a time then add heavy cream, the lemon zest, and flour. Mix until well-combined.
Pour the filling onto the chilled crust and bake in a waterbath at 400°F for 10 minutes. Then, lower the heat at 325°F for another 30-40 minutes. Turn off the heat and leave the cake inside the oven for 1 hour. Take the cheesecake out of the oven and allow to completely cool. Refrigerate the cheesecake for at least 4 hours before serving.
When ready to serve, top the cheesecake with blueberry filling and blueberries. Finally, serve with coffee or tea then have a pleasant blueberry cheesecake experience!
