Ingredients

Scale

1 cup graham cracker crumbs
4 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
16 oz cream cheese, softened
3/4 cup granulated sugar
3 large eggs, room temperature
1 tsp vanilla extract
2 cups tart apples (like Granny Smith), peeled and chopped
1 tsp ground cinnamon
1/4 cup brown sugar

Instructions

Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C). Combine graham cracker crumbs and melted butter until it resembles wet sand. Press firmly into lined muffin tins or mini springform pans.
Beat cream cheese until smooth; gradually add sugar. Mix in eggs one at a time, then add vanilla. Blend until just combined.
In a skillet, sauté chopped apples with brown sugar and cinnamon until slightly softened (about 5 minutes). Let cool.
Spoon cheesecake filling over crusts, filling three-quarters full. Top generously with sautéed apples.
Bake for 20-25 minutes until edges are set but centers jiggle slightly. Cool completely before refrigerating for at least two hours.
