Bavarian apple cheese cake tart is a wonderful autumnal bake. It is like a traditional cheesecake on a shortcrust base, with the delicious addition of apples, cinnamon and almonds :). It definitely tastes better than it looks. Highly recommended!<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Ingredients for the shortcrust base:<\/span><\/p>\n

\n
• 125 g butter, cold and cubed<\/li>\n
• 50 g caster sugar<\/li>\n
• 1 tsp vanilla extract (or vanilla sugar)<\/li>\n
• 150 g plain flour<\/li>\n
• a pinch of salt<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

  Sift the flour into a bowl, add the butter and rub in or cut in quickly until the mixture resembles breadcrumbs. Add the sugar, vanilla and salt and quickly bring together to form a dough. Alternatively, you can make the mixture in a food processor, blitzing until you have a crumbly mixture.<\/p>\n

  Tip the crumbs into the base of a 23 cm springform tin lined with baking paper and press firmly into an even layer.<\/p>\n

  Bake at 180\u00b0C for about 12\u201315 minutes, or until lightly golden.<\/p>\n

  Ingredients for the cheesecake filling:<\/span><\/p>\n

  \n
  • 250 g full-fat or semi-fat curd cheese, finely ground three times<\/li>\n
  • 50 g caster sugar<\/li>\n
  • 2 large eggs<\/li>\n
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    Beat all the ingredients together using the paddle attachment of a mixer until just combined.<\/p>\n

    Ingredients for the apple layer:<\/span><\/p>\n

    \n
    • 4 large cooking apples*<\/li>\n
    • 50 g caster sugar<\/li>\n
    • 1 tsp ground cinnamon<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

      Peel and core the apples, then cut them into thin half-moon slices. Toss with the sugar and cinnamon.<\/p>\n

      To finish:<\/span><\/p>\n

      \n
      • 4 tbsp flaked almonds<\/li>\n
      • icing sugar<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

        Pour the cheesecake mixture over the pre-baked base (it can still be hot). Arrange the cinnamon-coated apples evenly over the top. Sprinkle with the flaked almonds.<\/p>\n

        Bake at 180\u00b0C for about 45 minutes, or until the cheesecake is set and the top is lightly golden. Remove from the oven, leave to cool and dust with icing sugar.<\/p>\n

        * Good cooking apples: in Poland, varieties such as Szara Reneta, Anton\u00f3wka and Koksa; in the UK, Cox, Russet and other good cooking apples.<\/p>\n

        Enjoy!<\/p>\n
