My Easy Mini Caramel Apple Cheesecakes are a great way to use up apples when you have a large harvest at the end of the summer! I find I am always looking for apple recipes at this time of year and this is one of the best ones. These mini cheesecakes are simple to make using a muffin tray.
I start by making the cheesecake base from graham cracker crumbs, sugar cinnamon and melted butter. Then I beat cream cheese, sugar, vanilla and eggs to make the cheesecake mix which I then bake. I finish these little treats off with apples cooked with butter, sugar, cinnamon, cloves and caramel.
To make Easy Mini Caramel Apple Cheesecakes, you will need the following ingredients:
Heat the oven to 350 °F and line 12 muffin cups with paper liners.
Mix the graham cracker crumbs, sugar and cinnamon together in a small bowl. Add the melted butter and stir well to combine.
Place a tablespoon of the crumb mixture into the bottom of each muffin cup and press each base down with the back of the spoon.
Beat the cream cheese and sugar together in a large bowl with an electric mixer. When smooth, beat in the vanilla. Add the eggs and beat on low speed until blended. Pour the cheesecake mixture over each base.
Bake in the oven for 15-18 minutes until the centers set. Cool in the muffin tray on a wire rack for about 30 minutes.
In a small pan, mix the apple with butter, sugar, cinnamon and cloves over medium heat. Cook for 4-5 minutes until tender before stirring in the caramel topping.
Spoon the apple topping over the cheesecakes just before serving.
These Easy Mini Caramel Apple Cheesecakes are a really tasty way to use up your annual apple harvest. Try this recipe soon and remember to tag #CookMeRecipes if you post pics of your mini cheesecakes!
