Method
Preparation
- Preheat your oven to 325°F (163°C). Prepare a 9-inch springform pan by greasing it thoroughly to avoid sticking.
- In a medium-sized bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, sugar, and melted butter. Mix well until combined, then press this mixture into the bottom of the prepared pan to create a solid crust.
- In a separate bowl, beat the softened cream cheese, sugar, and vanilla extract using an electric mixer until smooth and creamy. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition until fully incorporated.
- Pour the cheesecake mixture over the graham cracker crust, smoothing it out evenly with a spatula.
- In another bowl, combine sliced peaches with cinnamon, brown sugar, and flour. Toss gently until the peaches are coated.
- Spoon the peach mixture over the cheesecake layer, distributing evenly.
Baking
- Bake in the preheated oven for about 60-75 minutes, or until set and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
- Once baked, let the cheesecake cool in the pan, then transfer to the refrigerator to chill for at least 4 hours or overnight.
Serving
- Serve chilled, garnished with fresh mint leaves if desired, and optional toppings like whipped cream, vanilla ice cream, or drizzled caramel sauce.
Notes
For an even more decadent taste, add a dollop of whipped cream on top when serving. You could substitute some of the fresh peaches with other fruits like blueberries or raspberries. Ensure your cream cheese is at room temperature for easy blending and a flawless texture.
