Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Prepare the apple filling by peeling, coring, and chopping the apples. Cook with butter, water, brown sugar, cinnamon, lemon juice, and cornstarch to thicken.
  2. Make the crust by mixing graham cracker crumbs, sugar, cinnamon, and melted butter, pressing into a springform pan, and baking until golden.
  3. Prepare the cheesecake filling by beating cream cheese and sugar until smooth, then mixing in sour cream and eggs, followed by cornstarch.
  4. Assemble the cheesecake by pouring half the filling over the crust, adding the apple filling, then the remaining filling, topped with crumble.
  5. Bake the cheesecake in the preheated oven for 60 minutes, allowing it to cool gradually in the oven to prevent cracks.
  6. Chill the cheesecake in the refrigerator for at least 5 hours or overnight before serving, drizzled with caramel if desired.
