Ingredients

  • 1 plain homemade or store-bought cheesecake
  • 3 apples chopped (I like a mixed variety)
  • 1 TBS butter
  • ¼ cup brown sugar
  • ½ teaspoon cinnamon
  • Pinch of nutmeg
  • Splash of vanilla
  • Squeeze of fresh lemon
  • 1 teaspoon cornstarch

Instructions

  • In a saute pan, melt your butter. Add in the apple pieces and toss.
  • Add in the sugar, spices, vanilla and lemon, stir to coat.
  • Once the mixture bubbles, add in the cornstarch and mix until incorporated and mixture begins to thicken.
  • Once apples are done to your liking (5-6 minutes), remove from heat. Let stand for a few minutes then top the cheesecake with them.
  • Feel free to drizzle with caramel if you have it on-hand or feel like making some.
  • Enjoy!
  • I like the apples warm over-top, however you can also enjoy them at room temperature.

Notes

I like leaving the peels on for this, so I use a variety of red and green apples. It's up to you if you choose to peel them. Works either way!
