Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 24 ounces cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 3 medium apples, peeled and diced
  • 6 tablespoons unsalted butter (for topping)
  • 1 cup granulated sugar (for caramel)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 325°F (163°C) and grease a 9-inch springform pan.
  2. Combine graham cracker crumbs, sugar, and melted butter in a bowl; press firmly into the pan to form the crust. Bake for about 10 minutes, then let cool.
  3. In a large bowl, beat cream cheese until smooth; gradually add sugar, followed by eggs one at a time. Mix in vanilla extract and sour cream until combined. Pour over the cooled crust.
  4. Bake the cheesecake in a water bath for about 55-65 minutes until slightly jiggly in the center. Cool gradually in the oven before refrigerating for at least four hours or overnight.
  5. Prepare apple topping by sautéing diced apples with butter, brown sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg until tender.
  6. Make salted caramel sauce by melting sugar over medium heat until amber; mix in cubed butter and cream until smooth. Stir in sea salt.
  7. Assemble by topping chilled cheesecake with apple mixture and drizzling with caramel sauce.
