I used this recipe for inspiration but tweaked it a bit using other recipes found on this site.
First of all, I used the pie crust recipe for "Healthier Pie Crust". I thought that the oatmeal crust would pair up nicely with the apples.
Then I followed the technique used in the "Double Layer Pumpkin Cheesecake" recipe to make the filling. I spread half of the filling onto the crust. Then I mixed in about 1/2 a can of apple pie filling, some spices, and whipped it with the cream cheese. I was able to blend the apple pieces using my mixer, but you may want to cut them into smaller chunks if they are large.
Finally, I spread this layer onto the plain cream cheese layer and baked it.
I didn't add any apple filling onto the top because it looked moist enough already, but I did drizzle some caramel over the top before baking.
Thanks for the inspriation to experiment with different cheesecake flavors!
