  • 3/4 cup chopped pecans
  • 2 (8-oz.) packages cream cheese, softened
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 4 large eggs, divided
  • 1/2 cup firmly packed light brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup butter, melted
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 1/2 cups peeled and diced Granny Smith apples
  • Caramel Apple Topping

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 °. Bake pecans in a single layer in a shallow pan 8 to 10 minutes or until lightly toasted and fragrant, stirring halfway through. Reduce oven temperature to 325 °. Sprinkle pecans over bottom of a greased and floured shiny 9-inch springform pan.
  2. Beat cream cheese, granulated sugar, and vanilla at medium speed with a heavy-duty electric stand mixer until blended and smooth. Add 3 eggs, 1 at a time, beating just until blended after each addition.
  3. Whisk together brown sugar, melted butter, and remaining egg in a large bowl until blended.
  4. Stir together flour and next 3 ingredients; add to brown sugar mixture, and stir until blended. Stir in apples. Spoon batter into prepared pan. Carefully spoon cream cheese mixture over batter.
