Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions for Caramel Apple Crisp Mini Cheesecakes
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Gather your ingredients and baking equipment.
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, rolled oats, melted butter, and brown sugar. Mix until well combined.
  3. Line your muffin tin with paper liners. Press approximately one tablespoon of crust mixture into each liner. Bake for about 5 minutes.
  4. In a large mixing bowl, beat together cream cheese, white sugar, brown sugar, cinnamon, ginger, cornstarch, and vanilla extract until smooth.
  5. Pour the cheesecake filling over each crust, filling them three-quarters full. Layer chopped apples on top.
  6. Mix all-purpose flour, rolled oats, melted coconut oil, and cinnamon. Sprinkle this topping over each cheesecake layer.
  7. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes until the filling is set. Cool for 15 minutes on a wire rack.
  8. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight. Drizzle caramel sauce over each cheesecake before serving.
