Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F.
  • In a large bowl, mix together quick-cooking oats, all-purpose flour, brown sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and ground cinnamon. Stir in melted butter until crumbly, saving 1¼ cups for topping.
  • Press the remaining mixture into the bottom of a greased 9-inch baking pan and bake for about 15 minutes.
  • In another bowl, beat cream cheese until smooth. Gradually add granulated sugar and vanilla, then mix in eggs one at a time.
  • Toss sliced Granny Smith apples with flour, brown sugar, and cinnamon in a separate bowl.
  • Layer the apple mixture evenly on the baked crust, then pour the cheesecake filling on top. Sprinkle the reserved oat topping over it.
  • Bake for about 35-45 minutes or until set. Let cool completely before refrigerating.
