Helpful Tips and Variations:

Which apples work best for this recipe? When it comes to baking, it’s important to choose an apple that holds up a bit under heat, doesn’t turn mushy and tastes sweet; just like Red Delicious or Golden Delicious. Even though they’re a bit sour, Granny Smith Apple still remain a good sub.
How can I replace the Graham Crackers? You can use vanilla wafers or ginger snaps.
Can I use premade apple pie filling instead? I don’t recommend using premade filling; making the apple filling yourself is so easy and will preserve the god texture of these apple cheesecakes.
Can I use a different topping for this Fall Dessert? Although cinnamon flavored apples work best for this recipe, you can still replace with any other fruit you like.
How can I store leftovers? These mini cheesecakes keep well in the fridge; place in an airtight container and enjoy for up to 4 days.
Can I make this recipe ahead? If you’re prepping for an upcoming holiday, party, or family gathering, you can definitely make these tasty mini cupcakes ahead and place them in the fridge for up to 3 weeks. It’s best to freeze them in muffin pan and covered properly with plastic wrap. Let them sit for a day in the fridge before serving.
