Instructions

Preheat your oven to 325°F (163°C) and lightly grease a springform pan.
In a bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and ¼ cup sugar. Press firmly into the bottom of the springform pan to form the crust.
In another bowl, beat the cream cheese until smooth. Add sour cream, remaining sugar, vanilla extract, and mix until creamy. Incorporate eggs one at a time without overmixing.
Toss chopped apples with cinnamon and nutmeg in a separate bowl.
Layer half of the cheesecake batter over the crust, followed by half of the spiced apples. Repeat with remaining batter and apples.
Bake for about 60 minutes until set but slightly jiggly in the center. Cool before refrigerating for at least four hours.
