Ingredients
Crust:
- 1½ cups Graham cracker crumbs
- ⅓ cup granulated sugar
- 7 Tablespoons butter melted
- ½ teaspoon cinnamon
Cheesecake:
- 2 (8 oz) packages cream cheese softened
- ½ cup granulated sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 2 eggs
- 1 (21 oz) can apple pie filling
- ¼ cup caramel topping
- ½ teaspoon cinnamon
- ¼ cup cinnamon almonds coarsely chopped (or any nut that you prefer)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- In a medium sized bowl, combine all ingredients for the crust. Mix until crumbly, then press firmly into the bottom and up the sides of a 9 inch pie plate. Bake in preheated oven for 6-7 minutes until set.
- In a large mixing bowl, beat cream cheese over medium speed until fluffy. Add in the sugar, vanilla extract, and eggs and beat until mixture is smooth.
- Scoop ¾ of the apple pie filling from the can and spread in the bottom of the prepared crust. Top with the cheesecake filling, spreading evenly.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes until top is set and cheesecake is cooked through. Transfer to a wire rack to cool.
- While cheesecake is baking, combine remaining ¼ can of apple pie filling, caramel topping, and ½ tsp of cinnamon in a small sauce pan over low heat. Stir until smooth, then set aside.
- When cheesecake is cool, spread caramel apple mixture over the top and sprinkle with chopped nuts. Refrigerate for at least 2-3 hours before slicing. Enjoy!
