Instructions

Preheat the oven to 325°F (163°C) and prepare a 9-inch springform pan by greasing it.
For the carrot cake layer, whisk flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg in one bowl. In another bowl, beat eggs with both sugars, vegetable oil, and vanilla until combined. Stir in dry ingredients and fold in shredded carrots.
Pour the carrot cake mixture into the pan and smooth the top.
For the cheesecake layer, beat cream cheese until smooth. Mix in sugar and flour. Add vanilla and eggs one at a time followed by sour cream until well combined.
Pour cheesecake batter over the carrot cake layer.
Bake for 50–60 minutes until just set with a slight jiggle in the center. Turn off the oven and let it cool with the door slightly ajar for 30 minutes.
Once cooled, refrigerate for at least four hours before serving.
