Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
  • 3 (8 ounce) packages cream cheese, softened
  • 1 1/4 cups granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 1 cup caramel sauce, divided
  • 1 cup chopped apples
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a medium bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs and 1/4 cup sugar. Pour in melted butter and mix until combined. Press mixture into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan.
  3. Bake the crust for 8-10 minutes. Remove from oven and let cool.
  4. In a large bowl, beat cream cheese and 1 1/4 cups sugar until smooth. Beat in flour and vanilla extract.
  5. Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in sour cream and 1/2 cup caramel sauce.
  6. Pour half of the cream cheese mixture over the crust. Sprinkle with chopped apples, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Pour remaining cream cheese mixture over the apples.
  7. Bake for 55-65 minutes, or until the center is almost set.
  8. Turn off the oven and let the cheesecake cool in the oven with the door slightly ajar for 1 hour.
  9. Remove from oven and let cool completely on a wire rack.
  10. Chill the cheesecake in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight.
  11. Before serving, drizzle with the remaining 1/2 cup caramel sauce.

Notes

  • For a cleaner slice, run a sharp knife around the edge of the cheesecake before releasing the springform pan.
  • You can prepare the caramel sauce yourself or use a good quality store-bought sauce.
  • Ensure your cream cheese is at room temperature for a smoother batter.
