3. Prepare the Apple Filling: In a bowl, mix the sliced apples, brown sugar, cinnamon, and lemon juice. Set aside to allow flavors to meld.
4. Combine Cream Cheese Filling: In another mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth. Gradually add sugar and vanilla, mixing well. Add eggs one at a time until well combined.
5. Assemble the Pie: Take the crust out of the refrigerator. Spread the cream cheese filling evenly over the crust. Layer the apple mixture on top.
6. Prepare Crumb Topping: In a separate bowl, mix flour, oats, and brown sugar. Cut in cold butter until crumbly. Sprinkle the topping over the apple layer.
7. Bake the Pie: Place the pie in the preheated oven and bake for 45-50 minutes or until the apples are tender and the crumb topping is golden brown.
