Step-by-Step Instructions for Apple Crumble Cheesecake
- Begin by crushing the biscoff cookies in a food processor until fine crumbs form. Melt the unsalted butter and combine it with the crumbs in a mixing bowl until the mixture resembles wet sand. Press this mixture firmly into the bottom of a lined 9" springform pan to create an even layer. Chill the crust in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes to set firmly.
- In a separate bowl, mix melted butter, brown sugar, rolled oats, and a pinch of salt until a crumbly texture forms. Spread this mixture onto a lined baking sheet and refrigerate for another 15-20 minutes to firm up.
- Peel, core, and slice the tart apples into thin pieces. In a large skillet over medium heat, toss the apples with brown sugar, cinnamon, and cornstarch. Cook until the apples are juicy and fork-tender, about 5-7 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool.
- In a mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with sugar, Greek yogurt, vanilla extract, and spices until smooth. Incorporate the eggs one at a time.
- Once the crust is chilled, pour the cheesecake batter into the springform pan, smoothing it out. Arrange the cooked apple mixture on top and sprinkle the crumble topping evenly.
- Preheat your oven to 325°F (163°C) and bake the cheesecake in the center for 65-70 minutes or until set with a slight jiggle in the center.
- Let the cheesecake cool completely at room temperature, then chill in the refrigerator for at least 6 hours or ideally overnight.
