Ingredients

• 1.5 cups Graham cracker crumbs
• 3 tablespoons Granulated sugar
• 6 tablespoons Unsalted butter, melted
• 8 ounces Cream cheese, softened
• 0.5 cup Brown sugar
• 1 large Egg
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 2 medium Apples, peeled and thinly sliced
• 0.5 cup Caramel sauce
• 0.25 cup Chopped peanuts (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9-inch pie pan lightly with butter or non-stick spray.

Step 2

In a medium bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, granulated sugar, and melted butter. Mix until the crumbs are evenly moistened.

Step 3

Press the crumb mixture firmly into the bottom and up the sides of the prepared pie pan to form a crust. Set aside.

Step 4

Using a hand or stand mixer, beat the softened cream cheese and brown sugar together until smooth and creamy.

Step 5

Add the egg and vanilla extract to the cream cheese mixture, and beat until fully combined. Spread this filling evenly over the prepared crust.

Step 6

Arrange the thinly sliced apples on top of the cheesecake layer, overlapping slightly for even coverage.

Step 7

Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the cheesecake layer is set and the apples are tender.

Step 8

Remove the pie from the oven and allow it to cool to room temperature. After cooling, drizzle the caramel sauce generously over the apples.

Step 9

Sprinkle the chopped peanuts (if using) on top of the caramel for added crunch and flavor.

Step 10

Refrigerate the pie for at least 2 hours before serving to allow it to set fully. Serve chilled and enjoy!
