Cheesecake and Toppings

Method

Preparation Steps

  1. 1

    Prepare the Crust

    In a mixing bowl, combine almond flour, rolled oats, brown sugar, salt, and melted butter. Mix until crumbly. Press the mixture into the bottom of a springform pan. Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 10 minutes, then remove and let cool.

  2. 2

    Make the Cheesecake Filling

    In a large bowl, beat the cream cheese and granulated sugar until smooth. Add the melted white chocolate, sour cream, and vanilla extract. Mix well. Add the eggs, one at a time, mixing until just combined.

  3. 3

    Prepare the Apples

    In a skillet over medium heat, melt butter and add diced apples and brown sugar. Cook for about 5-7 minutes until apples are caramelized. Set aside to cool.

  4. 4

    Assemble the Cheesecake

    Pour half of the cheesecake filling into the crust, then add the caramelized apples on top. Pour the remaining cheesecake filling over the apples. Smooth the top and bake at 325°F (160°C) for 50-60 minutes until the center is set but still slightly jiggly.

  5. 5

    Cool and Chill

    Allow the cheesecake to cool to room temperature, then refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight.

  6. 6

    Prepare Miso Butterscotch Sauce

    In a saucepan, combine heavy cream, miso paste, and powdered sugar. Heat gently while stirring until smooth and combined. Let cool slightly.

  7. 7

    Make the Crème Chantilly

    In a mixing bowl, whip heavy cream with powdered sugar until soft peaks form.

  8. 8

    Serve

    Slice the cheesecake and serve with a drizzle of miso butterscotch sauce and a dollop of crème chantilly on top.
