Why You’ll Love This Recipe

I absolutely love this recipe because it brings together two of my favorite desserts in one! The rich, creamy cheesecake layer pairs beautifully with the fresh, sweet peaches, and the cobbler topping adds a delightful crunch. It’s like enjoying a slice of cheesecake and a warm, comforting peach cobbler all at once. The buttery crust is the perfect foundation for the cheesecake, and the spices give the peaches an extra depth of flavor. It’s a dessert that will impress anyone who tries it, and I can’t think of a better way to enjoy peaches in the summer.

(Tip: You’ll find the full list of ingredients and measurements in the recipe card below.)

Directions

Preheat the oven to 325°F (165°C).

In a small bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, sugar, and melted butter. Press this mixture into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan to form the crust. Bake for 10 minutes and set aside to cool.

In a large bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and sugar together until smooth. Add the vanilla extract and eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the sour cream until fully combined.

Pour the cheesecake batter over the cooled graham cracker crust.

In another bowl, combine the sliced peaches, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Arrange the peach slices evenly on top of the cheesecake batter.

In a separate bowl, mix the flour, rolled oats, brown sugar, and softened butter to create the cobbler topping. Sprinkle this topping evenly over the peaches.

Bake for 55-60 minutes, or until the center is set and the topping is golden brown.

Allow the cheesecake to cool completely before refrigerating for at least 4 hours or overnight.

Slice and serve chilled, garnished with extra peaches if desired.

Variations

Berry Cobbler Cheesecake: You can swap the peaches for other fruits, like blueberries, raspberries, or strawberries, for a different twist.

Gluten-Free Version: Use gluten-free graham cracker crumbs and flour in the topping to make this dessert gluten-free.

Spiced Variation: For an extra flavor boost, try adding a pinch of ground ginger or cloves to the peach mixture.

Vegan Version: Substitute cream cheese with a dairy-free alternative and eggs with flax eggs or chia seeds.

Storage/Reheating

I recommend storing the Peach Cobbler Cheesecake in the fridge for up to 4-5 days. It should be covered tightly with plastic wrap or placed in an airtight container to keep it fresh. Since this cheesecake is best served chilled, I don’t suggest reheating it. If you’d like to enjoy the crust a little warmer, I’d recommend reheating just the crust part in the oven briefly before serving.

FAQs

How can I make sure my cheesecake doesn’t crack?

To prevent cracking, make sure you don’t overbake the cheesecake. It should be just set in the center when done, and then you can allow it to cool slowly at room temperature before refrigerating.

Can I use frozen peaches for this recipe?

Fresh peaches give the best flavor and texture, but if fresh ones aren’t available, frozen peaches can be used. Just be sure to thaw and drain them before adding to the cheesecake.

Is it possible to make this ahead of time?

Yes! This Peach Cobbler Cheesecake actually gets better after sitting in the fridge for a few hours, so it’s perfect for making ahead. Just be sure to let it chill for at least 4 hours or overnight.

Can I use a different crust instead of graham crackers?

Yes! If you prefer a different type of crust, you can use digestive biscuits, shortbread cookies, or even a crushed oatmeal cookie base for a unique twist.

How can I tell when the cheesecake is done baking?

The cheesecake should be slightly jiggly in the center, but the edges should be firm. It will continue to set as it cools, so be careful not to overbake it, or the texture may become dry.

Conclusion

This Peach Cobbler Cheesecake is a show-stopping dessert that’s perfect for summer gatherings or whenever you want to treat yourself to something delicious. With its creamy cheesecake layer, spiced peaches, and buttery cobbler topping, it’s a dessert that checks all the boxes. Whether served at a party or enjoyed at home with a cup of coffee, it’s sure to become a favorite.
