Applesauce Cheesecake Bars
Ingredients:
Crust:
1 cup flour
1/4 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup butter, room temperature
Cheesecake Filling:
12 oz cream cheese, room temperature
1/3 cup sugar
1 egg
1 tsp vanilla
Apple Layer:
1 cup applesauce (pre-made with honey/maple syrup, cinnamon and nutmeg)

1/2 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup flour
1/4 cup rolled oats
1/4 tsp cinnamon
1/4 cup butter, room temperature
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350° F.
2. In a medium bowl, whisk together flour and brown sugar. Add the butter and use a pastry blender (or two forks) to cut butter into mixture until crumbly. Press mixture evenly into 8x8 pan. Bake 12 to 14 minutes or until light golden in color.
3. In a large bowl, beat together cream cheese and 1/3 cup sugar using an electric mixer at medium speed until creamy and smooth, about 1 minute. Then add egg and vanilla. Beat to combine. Pour over warm crust.
4. Pour applesauce evenly over cheesecake mixture.
5. In a small bowl, combine brown sugar, flour, oats, cinnamon and butter. Either stir ingredients together using a wooden spoon or, better yet, use your clean hands to combine the butter into the mixture.
6. Sprinkle streusel topping evenly over the apple layer. Bake 35-40 minutes, or until streusel is light brown and filling is set. Let bars cool in the pan to room temperature, then transfer to refrigerator to chill for at least 3 hours. Serve cold and enjoy!
