Ingredients Notes

The magic of this Peach Cobbler Cheesecake lies in its simple yet carefully selected ingredients. Each one plays a crucial role in creating the perfect balance of flavors and textures.

Cream Cheese – The star of any cheesecake! Use full-fat cream cheese at room temperature for a rich, creamy texture with no lumps.

Peaches – Fresh peaches are ideal for the best flavor, but frozen or canned peaches work well, too. If using canned peaches, be sure to drain them thoroughly.

Graham Crackers – The base of this cheesecake is made from crushed graham crackers mixed with melted butter and a hint of sugar for a crisp, slightly sweet crust.

Cinnamon and Nutmeg – These warm spices elevate the cobbler topping and complement the natural sweetness of the peaches beautifully.

Eggs – Essential for setting the cheesecake, eggs help create that smooth, firm texture. Be sure to mix them in gently to avoid overbeating the batter.

For this recipe, you’ll also need a springform pan, which ensures easy removal and a beautifully smooth cheesecake.

How To Make This Peach Cobbler Cheesecake

Making this cheesecake is easier than you might think. Follow these steps to create the ultimate dessert.

Start by preparing the graham cracker crust. Crush the crackers into fine crumbs, mix them with melted butter and sugar, then press the mixture into the bottom of a greased springform pan. Bake it for about 10 minutes to set the crust.

While the crust cools, prepare the cheesecake filling. Beat the cream cheese and sugar together until smooth and creamy. Add in the eggs one at a time, followed by vanilla extract and sour cream, which adds extra richness. Pour this luscious batter over the cooled crust and smooth the top.

Next, work on the peach cobbler topping. In a saucepan, cook sliced peaches with sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, and a touch of cornstarch to thicken the mixture. Once the peaches are soft and the syrup has thickened, remove from heat and let them cool slightly.

Now, bake the cheesecake. Pour the peach mixture evenly over the cheesecake batter, then bake at a low temperature for about an hour. To prevent cracks, place a pan of hot water on the lower oven rack while baking.

Once baked, let the cheesecake cool in the oven with the door slightly open, then refrigerate for at least four hours (overnight is best) to let it set fully.

Storage Options

This cheesecake stores beautifully, making it a great make-ahead dessert.

For refrigeration, cover the cheesecake tightly with plastic wrap or store it in an airtight container. It will stay fresh for up to 5 days.

To freeze, wrap individual slices in plastic wrap and place them in a freezer-safe container. They’ll keep well for up to 2 months. Just let them thaw in the fridge before serving.

To reheat a slice, let it sit at room temperature for about 15 minutes or microwave it for 10 seconds if you prefer a slightly warm bite.

Variations and Substitutions

The beauty of this Peach Cobbler Cheesecake is its versatility. Here are some fun ways to switch things up:

If you love a little crunch, add chopped pecans or walnuts to the cobbler topping for extra texture.

For a caramel twist, drizzle homemade caramel sauce over the finished cheesecake before serving.

Want a different fruit? Swap the peaches for apples, cherries, or even mixed berries for a new flavor combination.

For a gluten-free version, use gluten-free graham crackers for the crust and ensure your cornstarch is certified gluten-free.

Craving a deeper spice flavor? Add a pinch of ground ginger or cloves to the peach mixture for extra warmth.

Experiment with your favorite flavors, and you might just discover a new household favorite!

This Peach Cobbler Cheesecake is the best of both worlds: creamy, fruity, and full of comforting spice. Whether you make it for a special occasion or just because, one thing is certain—you'll be coming back for another slice!
