Oh wow—Peach Cobbler Cheesecake is the ultimate dessert mashup: creamy cheesecake meets sweet, spiced peaches with a crumbly cobbler topping. Here’s a full recipe:
Ingredients
For the Crust:
- 1 ½ cups graham cracker crumbs
- ¼ cup sugar
- 6 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
For the Cheesecake Filling:
- 16 oz (2 packages) cream cheese, softened
- ½ cup sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- ½ tsp cinnamon
- ¼ tsp nutmeg
For the Peach Cobbler Topping:
- 3–4 ripe peaches, peeled and sliced
- ¼ cup brown sugar
- ½ tsp cinnamon
- 1 tbsp cornstarch (optional, for thicker syrup)
- 2 tbsp butter, cut into small pieces
- ¼ cup all-purpose flour
- 2 tbsp sugar (for crumb topping)
Instructions
- Preheat Oven:
- Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C).
- Grease a 9-inch springform pan.
- Make the Crust:
- Mix graham cracker crumbs, sugar, and melted butter.
- Press firmly into the bottom of the pan.
- Bake 8–10 minutes, then let cool.
- Make the Cheesecake Filling:
- Beat cream cheese and sugar until smooth.
- Add eggs one at a time, then vanilla, cinnamon, and nutmeg.
- Pour over cooled crust and smooth the top.
- Prepare Peach Topping:
- In a small bowl, toss peaches with brown sugar, cinnamon, and cornstarch.
- Pour over cheesecake filling.
- In another bowl, mix flour, sugar, and butter with fingers to form crumbs; sprinkle over peaches.
- Bake:
- Bake 50–60 minutes, until cheesecake is mostly set (slightly jiggly in the center).
- Let cool at room temperature, then refrigerate at least 4 hours or overnight.
- Serve:
- Slice with a hot knife for clean edges.
- Optional: drizzle with caramel or top with whipped cream.
💡 Tips:
- For extra flavor, add a pinch of ginger or cardamom to the peach topping.
- Don’t overmix the cheesecake—too much air can cause cracks.
- Use a water bath if you want an ultra-smooth cheesecake surface.
If you want, I can also give a simpler, quicker version using a boxed cheesecake mix and canned peaches—still delicious but easier for weeknights or last-minute desserts.
Do you want me to provide that version?
