  • 1/8 teaspoon nutmeg

Instructions
 

Preparation

  • Start by lining a standard cupcake pan with paper liners to help with easy removal later.
  • Preheat your oven to 325°F (163°C).
  • In a medium bowl, mix together the graham cracker crumbs, cinnamon, and sugar.
  • Pour in the melted butter and stir until everything combines well. Press 2 tablespoons of this mixture into each paper liner.
  • Place the pan in the refrigerator to chill.
  • In another bowl, combine the flour, brown sugar, oats, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Add the melted butter and stir until it turns into coarse crumbs. Refrigerate the streusel topping.

Make the Cheesecake Filling

  • Beat the softened cream cheese in a large bowl until smooth.
  • Add the sugar, vanilla, and flour. Mix until well blended.
  • Add the egg and stir just until combined.

Assemble and Bake

  • Spoon the cheesecake filling over the chilled crusts, filling them about 2/3 full.
  • In a separate bowl, toss the finely chopped apples with lemon juice, brown sugar, cornstarch, cinnamon, and nutmeg.
  • Spoon the apple mixture over the cheesecake filling, gently pressing down.
  • Generously sprinkle the streusel topping over each cheesecake.
  • Place the cupcake pan in the preheated oven and bake for 28-30 minutes.
  • Once done, cool the cheesecakes in the pan for 30 minutes and then transfer them to the fridge to chill for a couple of hours.

Serving

  • Serve your Apple Crisp Mini Cheesecakes drizzled with caramel sauce.
