Ingredients
Apple Pie Filling:
2 ¾ cups apples, diced in ½-inch cubes (about 3 medium apples)
1 Tbsp melted butter
¼ cup light brown sugar
1 tsp cinnamon
¼ tsp nutmeg
1 Tbsp fresh lemon juice
1 ½ Tbsp cornstarch
½ cup water
Graham Cracker Crust:
2 ¼ cups graham cracker crumbs
¼ cup light brown sugar
1–2 tsp cinnamon (to taste)
6 Tbsp unsalted butter, melted and slightly cooled
Crisp Topping:
½ cup all-purpose flour
½ cup light brown sugar
½ cup quick-cooking oats
1 tsp cinnamon
¼ tsp nutmeg
¼ cup unsalted butter, melted
Cheesecake Filling:
12 oz cream cheese, softened
½ cup sugar
1 ½ tsp vanilla extract
2 Tbsp flour
1 large egg
For Serving: Salted caramel sauce, whipped cream, or vanilla ice cream
Instructions
- Peel and dice apples. In a saucepan, melt butter and add apples, brown sugar, lemon juice, cornstarch, water, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Cook 10–15 minutes until slightly softened and thickened. Cool.
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). For crust, mix graham cracker crumbs, brown sugar, and cinnamon. Stir in melted butter, press into a 9-inch pie dish, and bake 8 minutes. Cool.
- For topping, mix flour, oats, brown sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Stir in melted butter until crumbly.
- For filling, beat cream cheese with sugar, vanilla, and flour until smooth. Mix in egg just until combined. Spread into cooled crust.
- Spoon apple filling over cheesecake layer, then sprinkle with crisp topping.
- Bake 35–40 minutes, tenting with foil if browning too quickly. Cool completely before slicing.
- Serve with caramel drizzle, whipped cream, or vanilla ice cream.
Notes
Use gingersnap cookies instead of graham crackers for a spicier crust.
Add chopped pecans to the topping for crunch.
Granny Smith or Honeycrisp apples hold up best.
For gluten-free, use gluten-free graham crackers and flour.
Tastes best chilled or at room temperature, but can be lightly warmed.
