Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 12-cup muffin tin.
  • Make the crust: In a medium bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, sugar, and melted butter. Mix until well combined. Divide the crumb mixture evenly among the muffin cups, pressing firmly into the bottom to form a crust.
  • Make the cheesecake filling: In a large bowl, beat cream cheese and sugar together until smooth and creamy. Beat in eggs one at a time, then stir in vanilla extract and sour cream until just combined. Do not overmix.
  • Assemble the cheesecakes: Evenly spoon the cheesecake filling over the prepared crusts in each muffin cup, filling them about ¾ full.
  • Make the apple crisp topping: In a medium bowl, combine sliced apples, flour, brown sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Toss gently to coat. Sprinkle the apple mixture evenly over the cheesecake filling in each muffin cup. Dot each with the cold butter pieces.
  • Bake: Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the cheesecakes are set around the edges and the topping is golden brown.
  • Let cool completely in the muffin tin before serving. You can speed up the cooling process by placing the muffin tin on a wire rack.

Notes

For a richer flavor, use brown butter in the crust. You can also add a sprinkle of coarse sugar to the top before baking for added crunch.
