Salted Caramel Apple Pie Cheesecake: A Decadent Fusion of Flavors

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 1/2 cup graham cracker crumbs
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 24 ounce cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 3 cup peeled and sliced apples
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 2 tablespoon all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup granulated sugar (for caramel sauce)
  • 6 tablespoon unsalted butter (for caramel sauce)
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream (for caramel sauce)
  • 1 teaspoon sea salt

Instructions

1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 325°F. Grease a 9-inch springform pan and line the bottom with parchment paper.

2. Make Crust: In a bowl, mix the graham cracker crumbs, 1/4 cup sugar, and 1/2 cup melted butter. Press the mixture into the bottom of the prepared pan. Bake for 10 minutes and let cool.

3. Prepare Cheesecake Filling: In a large bowl, beat the cream cheese until smooth. Add 1 cup sugar, eggs, vanilla extract, and sour cream. Mix until fully combined.

4. Prepare Apple Layer: In a separate bowl, toss the sliced apples with brown sugar, cinnamon, and flour.

5. Assemble: Pour half of the cheesecake batter over the crust. Layer the apples evenly, then pour the remaining cheesecake batter on top.

6. Bake: Bake for 55–65 minutes, or until the center is set. Cool the cheesecake to room temperature, then refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight.

7. Make Caramel Sauce: In a small saucepan, melt 6 tablespoon butter over medium heat. Stir in 1 cup sugar and cook until golden brown. Slowly add heavy cream and sea salt, stirring until smooth. Let the caramel sauce cool slightly.

8. Serve: Drizzle the caramel sauce over the chilled cheesecake before serving.

Notes

Bring all your ingredients to room temperature before starting for the best texture and easier mixing.

Avoid overbaking the cheesecake to prevent cracks in the surface. The center should still have a slight jiggle when the timer goes off.

For a clean, professional-looking slice, use a sharp knife dipped in hot water and wipe it clean between cuts.
