Transfer mixture to a bowl, add eggs one at a time, whisking well then stir in the flours and coconut. Spread mixture over the base of prepared pan and bake for 15 minutes (base will still be soft).
Remove from the oven and set aside 15 minutes. Reduce oven to 150°C fan forced

Increase speed to LIGHT MIXING setting and beat for 2-3 minutes until creamy. Reduce speed to setting 2 and add eggs, one at a time then the cream, beat 20-30 seconds until just combined
Carefully pour cheesecake mixture over the lukewarm base. Bake for about 35-40 minutes or until cooked, the centre will still wobble slightly. Turn oven off and leave door ajar for 2 hours. Refrigerate overnight. Cut into pieces and serve with blueberries
