# Detailed Cooking Steps:

01 - Heat oven to 180°C (160°C if you have a fan). Wrap a 23-cm springform pan in foil several times all around so no water gets in. Spray the pan with a bit of non-stick spray.

# Helpful Hints:

01 - Make sure cream cheese and sour cream are warmed up to room temp so your filling is super smooth.
02 - Wrap the springform pan tight with foil so no water sneaks in during the water bath.
03 - Mix Granny Smith and Gala apples together to get a nice sweet and tart combo.
