Apple Crisp Cheesecake

Ingredients

• 1 teaspoon lemon juice, or as needed
• 1 cup water, or as desired
• 1 Granny Smith apples – peeled, cored, and sliced, or more to taste
• 1/3 cup white sugar
• 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
• 1/4 cup white sugar
• 1 egg
• 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 (10 inch) graham cracker crust
• 1/3 cup quick-cooking oats

Directions

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).

Stir lemon juice and water together in a bowl; add apples to stop browning process. Whisk 1/3 cup sugar and cinnamon together in a separate bowl.

Beat cream cheese and 1/4 cup sugar together in a bowl using an electric mixer until smooth; add egg and vanilla extract and mix until evenly combined.

Drain apples and transfer to the graham cracker crust. Sprinkle cinnamon-sugar mixture and oats over apples. Pour cream cheese mixture over apple mixture.

Bake in the preheated oven until top is just beginning to brown, about 40 minutes. Cool on a wire rack, 1 to 2 hours. Refrigerate until completely set, 3 to 4 hours.
