For the base (crust)

.
  • Beat cream cheese and sugar for about one minute, scraping down sides as needed. Add in sour cream, eggs and vanilla mixing until everything is well combined. Pour batter into the springform pan and bake for 30 minutes. While your cheesecake is in the oven prepare the apples and crumb topping.

For the topping

  • Toss all the ingredients in the food processor with a few quick pulses

Prepare the apples

  • In a skillet melt the butter and add the sliced apples and cinnamon and sauté on medium heat for about 2 minutes tossing them every so often. Don't over cook the apples or they will fall apart.Set aside
  • After 30 minutes remove the cake from the oven and layer the apples on top . The cheesecake should be firm enough but it still will be 'jiggly' in the middle. Once the apples are on the cake, spread the crumb topping over the apples. Put it back in the oven for 25 minutes. Let cool completely then refrigerate for at least 5 hours.
