Autumn Cheesecake

I've had this recipe for several years - my husband found it somewhere on the internet. :) I've made a few slight changes to the original.

CRUST:
1 c. graham crackers crumbs
3 Tb. sugar
1/2 tsp. cinnamon
1/4 c. butter, melted

FILLING:
16 oz. cream cheese, softened
1/2 c. sugar
2 lg. eggs
1/2 tsp. vanilla
1 tsp. cinnamon

TOPPING:
4 c. thinly slice apples
1/3 c. sugar
1/2 tsp. cinnamon
1/4 c. chopped pecans

Combine crust ingredients and press onto bottom of 9-in. springform pan. Bake at 350 dgress for 10 min. Combine cream cheese and sugar, mixing until well blended. Add eggs one at a time. Blend in vanilla and pour over crust. Toss apples with combined sugar and cinnamon. Spoon apple mixture over cream cheese. Sprinkle with pecans. Bake at 350 degrees for 1 hour and 10 minutes. Loosen cake from rim of pan, cool before removin rim of pan. 10 servings.
