- 4 medium peaches, slightly underripe
- 3 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 & 1/4 (150g) cups all-purpose flour, spoon and leveled
- 1 cup (200g) packed brown sugar, light or dark
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/2 cup (115g) unsalted butter, melted and cooled
- 2 cups (210g) graham cracker crumbs
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/2 cup (115g) unsalted butter, melted and cooled
- 4 (8oz) blocks cream cheese (32oz / 900g total), at room temperature
- 1 cup (200g) granulated sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 cup (30g) all-purpose flour, spooned and leveled
- 1/2 cup (120g) sour cream, at room temperature
- 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
- 4 large eggs, at room temperature
- 5 medium peaches, slightly underripe
- 4 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). This ensures that your cheesecake bakes evenly from the start.
- Prepare the crust: In a mixing bowl, combine 2 cups of graham cracker crumbs, 3 tablespoons of granulated sugar, 1 teaspoon of ground cinnamon, and 1/2 cup of melted unsalted butter. Stir until it's well combined and resembles wet sand.
- Press the graham cracker mixture into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan, making sure it's packed tightly. Bake for 10 minutes until golden and fragrant.
- While the crust is baking, slice 4 medium peaches and toss them with 3 tablespoons of sugar and 1/2 teaspoon of cinnamon. Spread them on a baking sheet and roast in the oven for about 20 minutes, or until soft and caramelized. Remove and let cool.
- In a large mixing bowl, beat 4 blocks of room temperature cream cheese with 1 cup of granulated sugar until smooth and creamy, about 2-3 minutes. Avoid overmixing to prevent too much air from getting in.
- Add 1/2 cup of sour cream, 2 teaspoons of vanilla extract, and mix until combined. Then, add 4 large eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Scrape down the sides of the bowl to ensure everything is well mixed.
- Pour half of the cheesecake batter over the baked crust, then layer with half of the roasted peaches. Repeat with the remaining cheesecake batter and peaches, creating a beautiful layered effect.
- To make the streusel topping, combine 1 & 1/4 cups of flour, 1 cup of packed brown sugar, and 1/2 cup of melted unsalted butter in a bowl. Mix until crumbly, then sprinkle it over the top of the cheesecake.
- Bake the cheesecake in the preheated oven for 1 hour and 10 minutes. The edges should be set, but the center should still have a slight jiggle.
- Turn off the oven and crack the door open, allowing the cheesecake to cool in the oven for another hour. This helps prevent cracking.
- Remove from the oven and let it cool at room temperature for another hour. Then, refrigerate for at least 6 hours, preferably overnight, before removing the springform pan and serving.
