How to Make Apple Almond Cheesecake
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- 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.
- Bake crust for 10 minutes. Let cool completely.
- While crust cools, make the filling: In a large bowl, beat cream cheese until smooth. Gradually add sugar, beating until well combined.
- Beat in eggs, one at a time, then stir in vanilla extract and apple sauce.
- Pour filling over the cooled crust.
- Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until the cheesecake is set around the edges and the center is just slightly jiggly. Do not overbake.
- Turn off the oven and leave the cheesecake inside with the door slightly ajar for 30 minutes. This prevents cracking.
- Remove from oven and let cool completely on a wire rack.
- Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, before serving.
