Step-by-Step Instructions for Apple Crisp Mini Cheesecakes
  1. In a mixing bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, sugar, cinnamon, and melted butter. Stir until mixed. Press firmly into the bottom of a greased muffin tin. Chill for 10 minutes.
  2. Beat cream cheese with sugar until smooth. Add vanilla, flour, and egg. Mix gently until combined. Remove crust from refrigerator and fill each cup with cheesecake mixture.
  3. Peel and dice Golden Delicious apples. Toss with lemon juice, cornstarch, cinnamon, nutmeg, and brown sugar. Set aside.
  4. Spoon cheesecake filling into each crust, filling them two-thirds full. Layer apple mixture over the filling, then sprinkle with streusel topping.
  5. Preheat oven to 325°F. Bake for 28-30 minutes until edges are set and centers jiggle slightly. Cool in the tin before transferring to a wire rack.
  6. Allow cheesecakes to cool for 30 minutes, then refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving.
