Yield 24

Number Of Ingredients 17

1 teaspoon butter, or as needed
1 ½ cups graham cracker crumbs, or more as needed
⅓ cup butter, melted
2 (8 ounce) packages cream cheese, at room temperature
½ cup white sugar
2 large eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
3 Granny Smith apples - peeled, cored, and diced
2 tablespoons white sugar
½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg
¼ teaspoon ground allspice
½ cup brown sugar
½ cup all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon finely chopped walnuts, or to taste
¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon
¼ cup butter, cut into small pieces

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly butter a 9x13-inch baking pan.
  • Mix graham cracker crumbs and melted butter together in a bowl until crumbly, adding more crumbs if mixture is too wet. Press crust into the prepared baking pan.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until golden and set, 7 to 8 minutes. Remove from the oven and set aside.
  • Beat cream cheese and 1/2 cup sugar using an electric mixer in a large bowl until smooth. Add eggs, one at a time, beating after each addition. Beat in vanilla extract on low speed until mixture is blended. Pour filling over warm crust.
  • Stir apples, 2 tablespoons sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, and allspice together in a separate bowl; spoon evenly over filling.
  • Mix brown sugar, flour, walnuts, and cinnamon for streusel together in a bowl. Mix or cut butter into walnut mixture using your fingers or a knife until crumbly. Sprinkle over apple layer.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until cheese filling is set, 30 to 35 minutes.
  • Remove from the oven and let cool completely, about 30 minutes. Cut into small squares and refrigerate until ready to serve.
