Caramel Apple Cheesecake Pie combines the richness of creamy cheesecake, the coziness of cinnamon-spiced apples, and the decadence of caramel in one stunning dessert. Topped with a buttery streusel and baked in a crisp pie crust, it’s perfect for holidays, gatherings, or whenever you’re craving something truly indulgent.

Ingredients

  • 1 9-inch pie crust (homemade or store-bought)
  • Cheesecake Layer:
  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • Apple Topping:
  • 2–3 medium apples (Granny Smith, Honeycrisp, or a mix), peeled and thinly sliced
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 tsp ground nutmeg
  • 1 tbsp all-purpose flour
  • Streusel Topping:
  • 1/3 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar
  • 3 tbsp unsalted butter, cold and cubed
  • Finishing:
  • 1/2 cup caramel sauce (store-bought or homemade), for drizzling

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Place pie crust into a 9-inch pie dish and crimp edges. Set aside.
  2. Make the cheesecake layer: In a medium bowl, beat cream cheese, granulated sugar, egg, and vanilla until smooth. Spread evenly into the pie crust.
  3. Prepare the apple topping: In a bowl, toss sliced apples with brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, and flour. Layer evenly over the cheesecake filling.
  4. Make the streusel: In another bowl, mix flour and brown sugar. Cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Sprinkle over the apples.
  5. Bake for 45–50 minutes, or until the center is set and the topping is golden. Tent with foil if the crust or topping browns too quickly.
  6. Cool at room temperature, then refrigerate for at least 4 hours to set.
  7. Before serving, drizzle generously with caramel sauce. Slice and enjoy.

Notes

Swap traditional crust with graham cracker or gingersnap crust for a flavor twist.Add chopped pecans or walnuts to the streusel for crunch.Use salted caramel sauce for a sweet-salty contrast.For a spiced cheesecake, add 1/2 tsp cinnamon to the cheesecake mixture.Freeze without caramel and add drizzle after thawing.
