Instructions

  8. Pour half of the cheesecake batter over the crust.
  9. Spoon the apple mixture over the batter.
  10. Pour the remaining cheesecake batter over the apples.
  11. Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until the center is almost set.
  12. Turn off the oven and let the cheesecake cool in the oven with the door slightly ajar for 1 hour.
  13. Remove from oven and let cool completely on a wire rack.
  14. Chill in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight.
  15. Before serving, drizzle with caramel sauce.

Notes

  • For a smoother caramel swirl, gently swirl the caramel sauce into the unbaked cheesecake batter.
  • Ensure all dairy ingredients are at room temperature for a smooth batter.
  • Don’t overmix the batter once the eggs are added.
