Preheat your oven to 160°C (320°F). Grease a 23cm (9-inch) springform pan with butter.
In a medium bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs and melted butter. Press the mixture firmly into the bottom of the prepared pan to form the crust. Set aside.
In a large bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with an electric mixer until smooth and creamy.
Add the powdered erythritol and vanilla extract to the cream cheese, and beat until well combined.
Add the eggs one at a time, beating gently after each addition until fully incorporated.
Mix in the sour cream and almond flour until just combined.
In a small bowl, toss the diced apple with lemon juice and ground cinnamon until evenly coated.
Fold the apple mixture into the cheesecake batter.
Pour the batter over the prepared crust in the springform pan, spreading evenly with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 70-80 minutes, or until the center is set and the top feels slightly firm to the touch.
Turn off the oven, leave the door slightly ajar, and allow the cheesecake to cool in the oven for about 1 hour.
Refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight before removing the cheesecake from the pan and serving.
