Spray 9"/22 cm spring form pan with non-stick cooking spray. Mix together crumbs, cinnamon and butter; press onto bottom of pan. Bake in 325ºF/160ºC oven for 5 minutes. Purée cottage cheese in food processor; add cubes of softened cream cheese; process until smooth. Add flour, sugar, juice and grated peel; process until smooth. Add eggs, one at a time and process briefly after each addition. Pour batter onto crust. Bake in 325ºF/160ºC oven for 1 hr and 10–15 minutes until almost set. (Cheesecake is done when centre barely moves when jiggled). Remove from oven and run a knife around the outside edge. Cool to room temperature. Remove sides; heat marmalade and brush 1/2 over cheesecake. Arrange orange and kiwi slices on top; brush remaining marmalade on fruit; cover and chill at least 8 hrs.
