Apple cheesecake recipe
I have always been a big lover of cheesecake and apple pie. When I combined these two recipes to make an apple cheesecake, I immediately fell in love with the result. This cake is a hit at parties and family gatherings. The sweet, creamy filling pairs perfectly with the tart freshness of the apples and the crispy cookie base.
Ingredients
- 200 Gram butter biscuits
- 100 Gram melted butter
- 2 Äpfel (granny smith for a more sour taste, gala or fuji for a sweeter taste).
- 600 Gram Soaked and drained cream cheese
- 150 Gram sugar
- 3 Eggs
- 1 Teaspoon lemon juice
- 200 Gram sour cream
- 1 Teaspoon vanilla sugar
- 1 Pinch salt
- 2 Tablespoon flour

Directions
To make the apple cheesecake recipe, first put the butter cookies in a freezer bag and crush them into fine crumbs with a rolling pin. Add the melted butter and knead well. The better mixed, the more uniform the cake base will be.
Line a cake pan (26 cm diameter) with baking paper and spread the biscuit-butter mixture on top and press down firmly. Bake for 10 minutes in a preheated oven at 180°C and then leave to cool.
Meanwhile, peel, quarter, core and thinly slice the apples. Sprinkle with a little lemon juice to prevent oxidation.
Cream the soaked cream cheese with sugar, eggs, lemon juice, sour cream, vanilla sugar and pinch of salt with a hand blender. Add the flour and mix well once again.
Pour the cheese mixture on the cooled cookie base and top with the apple slices. Bake in the oven for 60 minutes. Then let cool well (best overnight in the refrigerator), so that the cake is nice and firm.
Before serving, the apple cheesecake can still be sprinkled with powdered sugar. Personally, I think this is a nice, but optional, extra detail.
