    I've been looking for apple crumble cheesecake since moving away from Brisbane. Thank you!

    I also chopped theapples in the thermi (why not Wink) and ended up using a mix of ricotta, cream cheese and sour cream. Would probably add lemon juice instead of vanilla into the filling, but other than that an excellent recipe!

    Tried this yesterday to take for dinner. Really nice, not too sweet. I would put a bit more crumble into the base next time. Cheated with Apple prep too - chopped quarters in the thermo.
