How to Make Apple Creme Brulee Cheesecake

1. Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C). Grease and flour a 9-inch springform pan.
2. In a large bowl, beat cream cheese and sugar until smooth and creamy.
3. Beat in eggs one at a time, then stir in vanilla extract and apple puree.
4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour and cornstarch.
5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
6. Pour batter into the prepared springform pan.
7. Place the springform pan in a larger roasting pan. Pour enough hot water into the roasting pan to come halfway up the sides of the springform pan (this creates the water bath).
8. Bake for 1 hour and 20 minutes, or until the cheesecake is set around the edges but still slightly jiggly in the center.
9. Turn off the oven and leave the cheesecake in the oven with the door slightly ajar for 1 hour.
10. Remove the cheesecake from the oven and let it cool completely on a wire rack.
11. Once cooled, refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight.
12. Before serving, sprinkle the top with granulated sugar and caramelize with a kitchen torch until golden brown.
