Instructions
  1. Prepare the apple filling by cooking apples, brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, and lemon juice over medium heat until tender. Set aside to cool.
  2. Mix graham cracker crumbs, sugar, and melted butter. Press firmly into a springform pan and bake briefly to set the crust.
  3. Beat cream cheese and sugar until smooth. Add eggs one at a time, then sour cream, vanilla, and cornstarch.
  4. Pour half of the cheesecake batter over the crust, add apple filling, then cover with remaining batter.
  5. Combine crumble topping ingredients until crumbly and sprinkle evenly over the cheesecake.
  6. Bake until the edges are set and the center slightly jiggles. Cool gradually, then refrigerate at least 4 hours before serving.

Notes

For best results, chill the cheesecake overnight. Serve with caramel sauce or vanilla ice cream if desired.
