Step-by-Step Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together 2 cups of all-purpose flour, 1/4 cup of sugar, 1 tablespoon of baking powder, 1/2 teaspoon of baking soda, and 1/2 teaspoon of salt until well combined.
- Using a pastry cutter, cut in 1/2 cup of chilled, unsalted butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Stir in 3/4 cup of cold buttermilk, 1 cup of peeled and diced apples, and 1 teaspoon of cinnamon until just combined.
- In a separate bowl, beat 8 ounces of softened cream cheese and 1/4 cup of sugar together with an electric mixer until smooth and creamy.
- Add in 1 large egg and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract, mixing until fully combined.
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- On a lightly floured surface, roll the dough out to about 1/2 inch thick, and cut it into squares.
- Place a tablespoon of the cheesecake filling in the center of each square, then fold and seal the corners tightly.
- In a bowl, mix 1 cup of rolled oats, 1/2 cup of brown sugar, 1/4 cup of melted butter, and 1 teaspoon of cinnamon until crumbly.
- Arrange the assembled buns on the prepared baking sheet, sprinkle with crumble topping, and bake for 20-25 minutes.
