How to Make Apple Almond Cheesecake

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Prepare the crust: In a medium bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, almonds, and melted butter. Press firmly into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan.
  3. Bake crust for 10 minutes. Let cool completely.
  4. While crust cools, make the filling: In a large bowl, beat cream cheese until smooth. Gradually add sugar, beating until well combined.
  5. Beat in eggs, one at a time, then stir in vanilla extract and apple sauce.
  6. Pour filling over the cooled crust.
  7. Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until the cheesecake is set around the edges and the center is just slightly jiggly. Do not overbake.
  8. Turn off the oven and leave the cheesecake inside with the door slightly ajar for 30 minutes. This prevents cracking.
  9. Remove from oven and let cool completely on a wire rack.
  10. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, before serving.
