1/2 cup (112g) salted butter, room temperature
4 1/4 cups (506g) chopped apples (3-4 large apples)
1 1/2 tsp all purpose flour
1 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
1/2 tsp ground nutmeg
20 ounces (565g) cream cheese, room temperature
3/4 cup (168g) packed brown sugar
3 tbsp (24g) all purpose flour

1/2 cup (65g) all purpose flour
1/2 cup (112g) packed brown sugar
1 1/2 tsp cinnamon
1/2 tsp nutmeg
4 tbsp (56g) salted butter, melted

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 300 degrees and prepare a 9×13 inch pan with parchment paper that sticks up above the sides of the pan, so that you can remove the bars later for easy cutting.
  • 2. In a medium bowl, combine the flour, brown sugar and cinnamon.
  • 3. Cut in butter into the flour mixture with a pastry blender or fork until mixture is crumbly.
  • 4. Press evenly into the bottom of the pan and bake for 8-10 minutes. When the crust is done baking, turn the temperature up to 325 degrees.
  • 5. In another large bowl, combine the chopped apples, flour, cinnamon and nutmeg and set aside.
  • 6. To make the filling, blend the cream cheese, brown sugar and flour in a large mixer bowl on low speed until well combined and smooth. Be sure to use low speed to reduce the amount of air added to the batter. Scrape down the sides of the bowl.
  • 7. Add the sour cream, vanilla extract, cinnamon and nutmeg and mix on low speed until well combined.
  • 8. Add the eggs and egg white one at a time, mixing slowly to combine. Scrape down the sides of the bowl as needed to make sure everything is well combined.
  • 9. Pour the batter into the pan with the crust and spread evenly.
  • 10. Spread the cinnamon apples evenly over the top of the cheesecake filling.
  • 11. In another small bowl, combine the flour, brown sugar, cinnamon and nutmeg for the streusel.
  • 12. Add the melted butter and stir together until crumbly.
  • 13. Sprinkle the streusel evenly over the apples.
  • 14. Bake the bars for about 45 minutes or until the center is just set. Remove the bars from the oven and allow to cool on the counter for about 45 minutes, then refrigerate until cold and firm.
  • 15. Use the parchment paper to remove the bars from the pan and cut into bars. Serve cold. Bars are best when stored well covered in the fridge and eaten within 4-5 days.

Time 7h55m

Yield 10

Number Of Ingredients 17

1 ½ cups finely crushed graham cracker crumbs
¼ cup white sugar
6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
2 medium Granny Smith apples - peeled, cored, and sliced
2 tablespoons brown sugar
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
4 (8 ounce) packages cream cheese, softened
1 ½ cups white sugar
¾ cup whole milk
4 large eggs
1 cup sour cream
¼ cup all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
¼ cup all-purpose flour
¼ cup packed brown sugar
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9-inch springform pan.
  • Combine graham cracker crumbs, sugar, melted butter, and cinnamon in a medium bowl. Press into the bottom of the prepared springform pan to form a crust.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until golden, 7 to 9 minutes. Cool to room temperature, 15 to 20 minutes.
  • While crust cools, mix apples, brown sugar, and cinnamon until coated and set aside.
  • Beat cream cheese and white sugar in a large bowl until smooth. Slowly add milk. Best in eggs one at a time. Stir in sour cream, flour, and vanilla extract on low speed or by hand until smooth. Do not overmix; you may have some small bits of cream cheese in the mix, but those will melt as the cheesecake cooks.
  • Pour 1/2 of the filling over the prepared crust. Arrange coated apples over the filling, leaving a 1/2-inch border. Top with remaining filling.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 40 minutes.
  • While cheesecake is baking, combine flour, brown sugar, and melted butter in a bowl. Sprinkle quickly over the cheesecake. Continue baking until set, about 20 minutes more.
  • Turn the oven off but do not open the door, allowing the cheesecake to cool in the oven for at least 4 hours; this helps prevent cracking. Refrigerate to allow cake to fully set before serving, 2 to 4 hours more.

The combination of the sweetness of the apples, the spice of cinnamon, and the creamy cheesecake come together to create a delightful taste that is hard to resist. If you are planning to make an apple cinnamon streusel cheesecake, here are some valuable tips that can help you to create a masterpiece.

1. Use The Right Ingredients

When it comes to making a cheesecake, using the right ingredients is crucial. You need to make sure that you use high-quality ingredients to ensure that the cheesecake tastes delicious. Make sure that you use fresh apples, cream cheese, eggs, all-purpose flour, butter, and sugar. For the cinnamon streusel, use ground cinnamon, all-purpose flour, brown sugar, and butter. Make sure to use unsalted butter to avoid making the dessert too salty.

2. Prepare the Ingredients in Advance

Making an apple cinnamon streusel cheesecake requires a lot of preparation. To make your work easier, prepare the ingredients in advance. Peel and chop the apples, measure the flour and sugar, and soften the cream cheese before you start baking. This will save you a lot of time and make the process smoother.

3. Use a Springform Pan

When making an apple cinnamon streusel cheesecake, it is essential to use a springform pan. This type of pan has a removable bottom, which makes it easier to remove the cheesecake from the pan after baking. The cheesecake will also come out looking more presentable when baked in a springform pan.

4. Make the Crust From Scratch

Although you can buy a pre-made crust, it is always better to make your own. A homemade crust has a better flavor and texture than a store-bought one. To make the crust, combine the all-purpose flour, sugar, and butter in a large bowl. Use a pastry cutter or your hands to mix the ingredients until the mixture resembles coarse sand. Press the mixture into the springform pan and bake in the oven for about 10-15 minutes until golden brown.

5. Use Room-Temperature Ingredients

To ensure that your cheesecake has a smooth and creamy texture, make sure that all the ingredients are at room temperature. This includes the cream cheese, eggs, and sour cream. Room temperature ingredients mix more easily, which leads to a smoother cheesecake.

6. Be Patient When Baking

Baking an apple cinnamon streusel cheesecake requires patience. You need to bake the cheesecake at a low and slow temperature to prevent cracking. Preheat the oven to 325°F and bake the cheesecake for about 1 hour and 15 minutes. Do not open the oven door during baking as this can cause the cheesecake to crack.

7. Leave the Cheesecake to Cool Gradually

After baking the cheesecake, turn off the oven and leave the cheesecake inside with the door slightly ajar for about 30 minutes. This allows the cheesecake to cool slowly and prevents the top from cracking. Once the cheesecake has cooled down, refrigerate it for at least 2 hours or overnight.

8. Add the Streusel Topping

The streusel topping adds a delightful crunch to the cheesecake. To make the topping, combine the all-purpose flour, brown sugar, ground cinnamon, and unsalted butter in a bowl. Use your fingers to mix the ingredients until the mixture resembles coarse sand. Sprinkle the topping over the cheesecake before serving.

9. Add Apple Slices for Decoration

To make the cheesecake even more visually appealing, add thinly-sliced apple pieces on top of the cheesecake before serving. This not only looks good but also adds an extra layer of flavor.

Conclusion

Making an apple cinnamon streusel cheesecake can be a daunting task, but with the right ingredients and techniques, you can make a delicious dessert that everyone will enjoy. Remember to take your time, use room-temperature ingredients, and be patient when baking. With these valuable tips, you can create a mouth-watering apple cinnamon streusel cheesecake that will impress your family and friends.
