Preheat your oven to 325°F (160°C) and prepare a 9-inch springform pan.

In a mixing bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs with melted butter until it resembles wet sand. Press into the bottom of the pan.

Beat softened cream cheese with an electric mixer on medium until smooth. Gradually add sugar and blend until combined.

Incorporate sour cream, maple syrup, and chai spice, mixing until fluffy.

Add eggs one at a time, ensuring each is fully incorporated before adding the next.

Pour the filling over the crust and bake for 55-60 minutes until edges are set.

Turn off the oven and cool with the door slightly ajar for one hour before chilling in the refrigerator.
