  • Total Time: 8 hours 10 minutes
  • Yield: 1 (9-inch) cheesecake, serves 12

Ingredients

Peach Filling

  • 4 medium peaches, slightly underripe
  • 3 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon

Crumby Streusel

  • 1 & ¼ cups (150g) all-purpose flour, spooned and leveled
  • 1 cup (200g) packed brown sugar, light or dark
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • ½ cup (115g) unsalted butter, melted and cooled

Graham Cracker Crust

  • 2 cups (210g) graham cracker crumbs
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • ½ cup (115g) unsalted butter, melted and cooled

Cheesecake Filling

  • 4 (8oz) blocks cream cheese (32oz / 900g total), at room temperature
  • 1 cup (200g) granulated sugar
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ cup (30g) all-purpose flour, spooned and leveled
  • ½ cup (120g) sour cream, at room temperature
  • 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
  • 4 large eggs, at room temperature

Peach Topping

  • 5 medium peaches, slightly underripe
  • 4 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon

Instructions

  1. Prepare peach filling: Position two oven racks (center and lowest) and preheat oven to 400°F. Core and thinly slice 4 peaches. Toss slices with sugar and cinnamon, let sit for 5 minutes to release juices, then spread evenly on parchment-lined baking sheet. Roast 10-15 minutes until tender, then cool.
  2. Make streusel: Lower oven temperature to 325°F. Mix flour, brown sugar, cinnamon, and melted butter until crumbly like wet sand. Spread on parchment-lined sheet and bake for 10 minutes. Cool and break into even crumble; set aside.
  3. Prepare graham cracker crust: Combine graham cracker crumbs, sugar, cinnamon, and melted butter. Press firmly into bottom and halfway up sides of a 9-inch springform pan. Bake at 325°F for 8 minutes. Cool slightly.
  4. Make cheesecake batter: Beat cream cheese and sugar until smooth. Add salt, flour, sour cream, and vanilla; mix well. Add eggs one at a time, mixing gently until just combined, avoiding overmixing.
  5. Assemble cheesecake layers: Pour half the cheesecake batter over crust. Evenly layer cooled roasted peach filling, then sprinkle ⅓ to ½ of streusel. Dollop remaining batter on top and smooth.
  6. Bake cheesecake: Place a large baking pan with 1 inch boiling water on the bottom oven rack and cheesecake on center rack. Bake at 325°F for 1 hour 10-20 minutes until edges are set and center jiggles slightly. Turn off oven, crack door, and cool cheesecake in oven for 1 hour, loosening edges after 30 minutes. Cool completely at room temperature, then chill for at least 4 hours or overnight.
  7. Prepare peach topping: Preheat oven to 400°F. Core and slice 5 peaches thicker than for filling. Toss with sugar and cinnamon, let sit 5 minutes, spread on parchment-lined sheet, and roast 12-16 minutes until tender. Cool.
  8. Decorate cheesecake: Remove cheesecake from springform pan and transfer to serving plate. Arrange roasted peach topping and juices on top, then sprinkle reserved streusel. Slice and serve.

Notes

  • You can roast all peaches at once for filling and topping, but roasting topping separately keeps peach slices fresher and thicker for decoration.
  • Letting the sugar sit on the peaches before roasting helps them release juice and develop shine.
  • Baking the streusel before adding it to the cheesecake ensures it stays crisp and safe to eat.
  • Using a water bath during baking helps prevent cheesecake cracking and ensures even cooking.
  • Loosening the cheesecake edges after partial cooling prevents cracking and sticking.
  • Use room-temperature ingredients to ensure smooth, lump-free batter and proper baking.
