  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a 9-inch springform pan with parchment paper or grease with butter.
  • Combine graham cracker crumbs and butter in a large bowl to create a grainy mixture. Reserve 1/4 cup and distribute remaining crust evenly onto the base of the prepared springform pan. Set aside.
  • Combine apple slices, brown sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg in a bowl and toss to coat. Set aside.
  • Combine cream cheese, mascarpone cheese, sugar, and vanilla extract in a large bowl and mix using an electric mixer. Add eggs 1 at a time. Beat until well integrated, 2 to 3 minutes. Pour filling into the crust-lined pan and smooth using a spatula.
  • Arrange apple slices on top of filling in a circular "deck of cards" arrangement. Sprinkle reserved crust mixture on top.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until edges begin to firm up, apples soften, and center remains jiggly, 30 to 40 minutes.
  • Cool for 6 to 8 hours before serving.
