Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Delicious Apple Cheesecake.
Step 1
Begin by preheating your oven to a cozy 350ยฐF (175ยฐC).
Step 2
In a mixing bowl, blend together graham cracker crumbs, finely chopped pecans, melted butter, white sugar, and a dash of ground cinnamon until the mixture is harmoniously combined.
Step 3
Firmly press this delightful blend into the base of a 9-inch springform pan, creating a sturdy crust.
Step 4
Bake this crust in the preheated oven for 10 minutes, then take it out while keeping the oven warm.
Step 5
In a separate bowl, use an electric mixer on medium speed to beat cream cheese and 1 cup of sugar until the mixture is luxuriously smooth.
Step 6
Introduce the eggs one at a time, ensuring each is well incorporated before adding the next, and then stir in the fragrant vanilla extract.
Step 7
Pour this creamy filling over your freshly baked crust.
Step 8
In another bowl, toss sliced apples with the remaining sugar and cinnamon until they are beautifully coated.
Step 9
Spoon these sweetened apples over the cheesecake filling, and for an extra crunch, sprinkle additional pecans on top.
Step 10
Bake this masterpiece in the oven for 60 to 70 minutes, or until the edges are puffed and the center is set, creating a tantalizing aroma that fills your kitchen.
Step 11
Once baked, gently run a knife around the edges of the pan to loosen the cheesecake.
Step 12
Allow it to cool at room temperature for about an hour, then transfer it to the refrigerator to chill for at least 4 hours or overnight.
Step 13
This waiting period will enhance the flavors, making each slice a heavenly experience when served.
Step 14
Enjoy your delicious creation!.
