Method
 

Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 12-cup muffin tin.
  2. Make the crust: Combine graham cracker crumbs, sugar, and melted butter in a bowl. Press into the bottom of each muffin cup.
  3. Make the filling: Beat cream cheese and sugar until smooth. Beat in eggs one at a time, then stir in vanilla and sour cream. Whisk in flour until just combined.
  4. Divide the cheesecake filling evenly among the prepared crusts.
  5. Make the topping: Combine flour, oats, brown sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg in a bowl. Cut in cold butter using a pastry blender or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  6. Stir in diced apples. Sprinkle the topping evenly over the cheesecake filling.
  7. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the cheesecakes are set. Let cool completely before serving.

Notes

For a crispier topping, broil the cheesecakes for the last 2-3 minutes of baking. These mini cheesecakes can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
