Hi Don! I don’t have much experience with a toaster oven so I can’t say for sure how it would turn out. It’s likely possible, but I can’t say for sure how to do it.

Thank you Sam

Yes

Hi Don! I haven’t tried it, but it could work. It will change the flavor.

It should work, but it might be sweeter than what is used in our recipe. Enjoy!

Hi Melissa! I’m so glad you enjoyed the cheesecake so much and you’ve enjoyed all of the recipes so much! It’s good to know that all of the hard work and testing is appreciated. 🙂 For the streusel topping, I would try adding a pinch (1/4 teaspoon) of baking soda in when making the streusel. This will help keep it from getting too hard to cut. 🙂

I would also like to personally thank you for the research and testing that go into your recipes, and the clear instructional video that is so helpful when you’re up to your ears in food prep at this time of year. We all know groceries aren’t cheap and I’m not getting younger, so recipe failures are so much more disappointing than they used to be. I really appreciate this site and this year’s cheesecake has placed you in my personal top 5 most trusted baking sources.

This year, there were zero cheesecake leftovers, and happily, my pumpkin loving young cousin got to take home about half of the pumpkin pecan tart this year. My immediate family all had a small taste of this apple cheesecake on Thanksgiving, so we all agreed that we needed another one… one we can keep all to ourselves.

On another note, we love oats in other ways but don’t want the texture in apple pie or cheesecake, so I went with the Steusel Topping recipe from this site, adding a teaspoon of cinnamon to it. It was tasty but got really hard and crunchy during the bake. It made it difficult to cut the cheesecake without smashing it. Still tasty but something I’ll try to correct moving forward. I’m not sure which direction I should go… Perhaps I should add it to the cheesecake halfway through the bake? I worried over the apples sitting totally exposed on top so didn’t go that route with today’s attempt. Instead, I’m trying a streusel topping recipe using cake flour that I know bakes up tender on coffee cake. It’s still baking so I don’t know how this will go, but I fear it will be hard to avoid getting a super crunchy top with the time a cheesecake needs in the oven. Any advice here would be much appreciated.

Thanks Sam!!

I’m so glad everyone enjoyed it so much, KyleAnne! 🙂

Hi Briana! The apple filling you will want to cook on a medium low heat. After you assemble the cheesecake it will be baked on 325. 🙂

I’m so glad everyone enjoyed it so much, Teresa! 🙂

I’m so glad you enjoyed it so much, Penny! 🙂

Thank you so much, Sharon! I’m so glad you appreciate the videos and the recipes as well. The important part is that the recipe is repeatable so you can have success in your own kitchen. I’m so glad everyone enjoyed it so much! 🙂

I’m so glad everyone enjoyed it so much, Mary! 🙂

I don’t recommend it as I personally don’t like the texture as it can be tough and difficult to chew.
