1
You will also need four 150ml jars.
2
Combine cookie crumbs with vegetable oil or nut butter and demerara sugar. Divide into 4 parts and cover the bottom of each of the 150ml jars.
3
Combine quark or cream cheese with 1 tablespoon honey and vanilla extract. Distribute among jars over the cookie layer.
4
Peel apples, remove the seeds and slice them. In a pot, combine apples with cinnamon and 5-6 tablespoons of water. Simmer over medium-low heat for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally and adding a bit of water if needed. Add the remaining 1/2 tablespoon honey and mash. Let cool.
5
In a small saucepan, combine cranberries with agave syrup and a bit of water. Simmer over medium-low heat for about 6-7 minutes, stirring occasionally and adding a bit of water if needed. Let cool.
6
Distribute the apple puree over the quark mixture, leaving a bit of space for the cranberries. If you have some apple puree left, keep it in the fridge and use it for other dishes.
7
Top with cranberries and put the lids on if you don't plan to serve the cheesecake jars right away. Refrigerate for up to 4 days. Enjoy!

Tips for the best results

Read through all the steps once before you start and measure out your ingredients first — it makes everything go more smoothly.
Preheat the oven fully and bake on the middle rack for the most even results.
Check for doneness a few minutes early — a toothpick in the center should come out with just a few moist crumbs.
Let it cool before slicing so it sets properly and holds its shape.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge and enjoy within a few days.

Variations & substitutions

Swap the honey for maple syrup or agave for a slightly different but equally rich sweetness.
Use a neutral oil or a plant-based spread in place of butter for a dairy-free version.
Brown sugar instead of white sugar adds a deeper, more caramel-like flavor.
Leave out the nuts to make it nut-free, or swap in seeds for a similar crunch.
Coconut cream is a reliable plant-based alternative to dairy cream.
