Warm, tender baked apples filled with a creamy cheesecake center, topped with brown sugar crumble and a drizzle of caramel for the ultimate fall-inspired indulgence.

Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 4 large apples (Honeycrisp or Fuji work well)
  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 egg yolk
  • 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
  • Crumble Topping:
  • 1/3 cup brown sugar
  • 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 cup rolled oats
  • 1/2 tsp cinnamon
  • 2 tbsp cold unsalted butter, cubed
  • Optional Garnish:
  • Caramel sauce, for drizzling
  • Crushed graham crackers or nuts

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking dish with parchment paper.
  2. Slice the tops off apples and scoop out the core and some flesh to make room for filling.
  3. In a mixing bowl, beat cream cheese, sugar, vanilla, egg yolk, and cinnamon until smooth and creamy.
  4. Spoon the cheesecake mixture into the hollowed apples, filling about 3/4 full.
  5. In another bowl, combine brown sugar, flour, oats, and cinnamon. Cut in butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  6. Sprinkle crumble over each filled apple generously.
  7. Bake for 25–30 minutes, until apples are tender and the topping is golden brown.
  8. Let cool slightly, then drizzle with caramel sauce before serving.

Notes

  • Choose firm apples to maintain shape during baking.
  • Do not overfill to prevent spillage while baking.
  • Can be made ahead and reheated before serving.
  • Top with ice cream for an extra indulgent treat.
