Ingredients

Crust

  • 1 cup graham cracker crumbs
  • ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter melted

Cheesecake filling

  • 1 package (8 ounces) cream cheese softened
  • 1 cup heavy whipping cream
  • 4 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla bean paste (or vanilla extract)
  • 1 teaspoon apple pie spice

Apple cinnamon topping

  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 2 apples peeled, cored, and diced (any kind will do, I used a Pink Lady and Fuji apples)
  • tablespoons light brown sugar packed
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Instructions

  • To prepare crust, in a small bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, cinnamon, and melted butter. Stir until thoroughly combined. Set aside.
  • To make the cheesecake batter: in a large bowl, combine the cream cheese, heavy cream, granulated sugar, vanilla extract, and apple pie spice.
  • Using an electric hand mixer or stand mixer with fitted paddle attached, beat mixture until smooth and creamy, about 3-4 minutes. Set aside.
  • To make the apple topping: in a large skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Add diced apples, brown sugar, and cinnamon. Stir to combine and sauté apples until tender, about 5-7 minutes.

To assemble cheesecake in mini mason jars:

  • Spoon about 4 tablespoons of graham cracker crumbs onto the bottom of 4 mason jars. Lightly press down with a spoon.
  • Add about 1/4 cup of cheesecake batter on top of graham cracker crumbs, followed by roughly 3 tablespoons of sautéed apples. Repeat with another layer of cheesecake and apples, if desired.
  • Refrigerate until firm, at least 30 minutes, or until ready to serve.

To assemble cheesecake in pie form

  • Spread graham cracker crumbs onto the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan and lightly press down.
  • Add cheesecake filling and spread in an even layer, followed by sautéed apples.
  • Refrigerate until firm, at least 30 minutes, or until ready to serve.
