Ingredients
  

For the Cheesecake

  • 16 ounces cream cheese ensures a rich, smooth texture that defines the cheesecake
  • 1 cup granulated sugar sweetens the filling perfectly for a balanced flavor
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract adds a lovely aromatic depth to the cheesecake
  • 3 large eggs binds the ingredients, giving structure and creaminess
  • 1 cup sour cream enhances creaminess and adds a slight tang for balance
  • 1 cup unsweetened applesauce infuses apple flavor while contributing moisture
  • ½ cup all-purpose flour stabilizes the cheesecake, preventing it from being too runny
  • 3 medium apples, peeled and sliced fresh apples bring ever-so-needed texture and flavor
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon spices up the flavors with a warm, familiar taste
  • ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg adds a subtle earthiness that complements the apples

For the Crumble Topping

  • 1 cup oats provides wholesome texture and a nutty flavor to the topping
  • 1 cup brown sugar creates a delightful sweetness with hints of molasses
  • ½ cup butter, melted binds the crumble together while adding richness
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice brightens the overall flavor and enhances the apples

Instructions
 

Steps

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  • In a large mixing bowl, combine cream cheese, granulated sugar, and vanilla extract. Beat until creamy and smooth.
  • Add eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
  • Stir in sour cream and applesauce until fully combined.
  • Gradually add flour, folding it in gently until just blended.
  • Fold in sliced apples, cinnamon, and nutmeg.
  • Pour the mixture into the prepared greased springform pan, smoothing the top.
  • In a separate bowl, combine oats, brown sugar, and melted butter. Mix until crumbly.
  • Sprinkle the crumble mixture over the cheesecake batter.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 1 hour.
  • Let cool at room temperature for about 1 hour, then refrigerate for at least 4 hours.

Notes

Use room temperature ingredients for a smoother batter. Don’t overmix to avoid a dense cheesecake, and chill for at least 4 hours for best flavor.
