When you add flour to a cheesecake recipe or see a recipe that calls for flour, the purpose is to adjust the texture and the way the cheesecake is baked.
When there is flour or another starch present in a cheesecake it makes the texture denser and more cake-like.
When there isn't a starch present in a cheesecake, this is the kind of recipe where usually it calls for a spring form pan, a water bath and lower temperature and this often will result in a smooth and creamy texture.
