How to Make Harvest Apple Streusel Squares

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a small bowl, combine 1 ½ cups graham cracker crumbs, 6 tablespoons (3 ounces) melted butter, and ½ cup finely chopped pecans.
  3. Press the mixture evenly into a parchment paper-lined 13x9-inch baking pan.
  4. In a medium bowl, beat 8 ounces cream cheese until fluffy.
  5. Add 14 ounces sweetened condensed milk and 2 large eggs; beat until well combined.
  6. Pour the cream cheese mixture over the prepared crust.
  7. Spoon 2 cups apple pie filling evenly over the cream cheese layer.
  8. In a medium bowl, combine ½ cup packed brown sugar, ½ cup all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg (optional).
  9. Cut in 6 tablespoons (3 ounces) cold unsalted butter using a pastry blender or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  10. Stir in ½ cup dried cranberries and ¼ cup chopped pecans.
  11. Sprinkle the streusel topping evenly over the apple layer.
  12. Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the center is set. Do not overbake.
