Crock Pot Apple Nut Cheesecake
For the crust:
1 cup graham cracker crumbs
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
2 tablespoons sugar
3 tablespoons butter, melted
1/4 cup finely chopped pecans
For the filling:
16 ounces cream cheese
1/4 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup granulated white sugar
2 large eggs
3 tablespoons heavy whipping cream
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1 teaspoon vanilla
Topping:
1 large apple, thinly sliced (about 1 1/2 cups)
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 cup sugar
1 tablespoon finely chopped pecans
Combine crust ingredients; press into a 7-inch springform pan. Beat sugars into cream cheese until smooth and creamy. Beat in eggs, whipping cream, cornstarch, and vanilla. Beat for about 3 minutes on medium. Pour mixture into the prepared crust. Combine apple slices with sugar, cinnamon and nuts; place topping evenly over the top of cheesecake. Put the cheesecake on a ring of aluminum foil to keep it off the bottom of the crock pot. Cover and cook on high for 2 1/2 to 3 hours. Turn off crock pot and let stand in the covered pot for 2 hours or until cool enough to remove from crock pot.. Cool thoroughly and then remove springform sides. Chill.
