This Peach Cobbler Cheesecake has a layer of juicy peaches and cinnamon streusel baked in the center of an ultra creamy vanilla cheesecake. Top the cheesecake with more peaches and streusel for a showstopper summer dessert!
Why you’ll love this recipe:
- Fresh Peaches – Fresh peaches are roasted to juicy perfection, making them tender and extra juicy! This is the perfect dessert to make during peach season.
- Cinnamon Streusel – A quick cinnamon streusel gives this cheesecake the feel of peach cobbler.
- Creamy Cheesecake – My simple recipe for cheesecake is ultra creamy, and easy to make.
Ingredient Overview:
- Peaches – I recommend using fresh peaches! They’re in season right now and are so incredible. See substitutions for a frozen alternative.
- Cream Cheese – Be sure to use blocks of full-fat cream cheese. Set your cream cheese out ahead of time so it can come to room temperature.
- Sour Cream – Use full fat for best results. Pull this out ahead of time so it can come to room temperature.
- Eggs – Pull the eggs out ahead of time so it can come to room temperature.
- Vanilla Extract – Don’t skimp on the vanilla here – with a vanilla cheesecake batter, you want to use real vanilla for the best flavor.
Ingredient Substitutions:
- Peaches – If you’re making this out of season, you can use frozen peaches. There is a note in the recipe card below about using them for the filling and topping.
- Butter – As always, I adore salted butter! But, you can use unsalted if you prefer.
How to Make this Recipe Step-by-Step:
Step 1: Make your graham cracker crust by mixing together graham cracker crumbs, butter, and sugar. Pre-bake the crust in a springform pan for 10 minutes.
Step 2: Roast your peaches in the oven with a bit of cinnamon and sugar. This makes them tender and extra juicy.
Step 3: Make and bake the cinnamon streusel and let it cool while you make the cheesecake batter.
Step 4: Mix up the cheesecake batter. Cream together your cream cheese and sugar with an electric mixer or stand mixer. Then add your eggs, mixing between each until just combined. Add the sour cream and vanilla, and mix until just combined.
Step 5: Pour half of the cheesecake batter over the pre-baked crust. Add some of the roasted peaches and cinnamon streusel.
Step 6: Pour over the remaining batter. Bake the cheesecake as directed in the recipe below for best results. No need to use aluminum foil on the springform pan since we’re using a different water bath method!
Step 7: When ready to serve, top the cheesecake with more roasted peaches and the remaining cinnamon streusel!
Expert Success Tips:
- Pre-Baking the Crust – This is essential to avoiding a soggy crust. Do not skip this!
- What is a Water Bath? – I don’t like doing a traditional water bath because the crust always seems to get soggy. Instead, place your roasting pan full of boiling hot water on the rack below your cheesecake. You’ll get the same benefits of a water bath – an extra smooth, creamy cheesecake, without risking a soggy crust!
- Don’t Over Mix Cheesecake Batter- Over mixing the cheesecake batter can cause the cheesecake to buckle in the oven. It will still taste great, but won’t look as pretty.
- Let the Cheesecake Chill – Allow the cheesecake to come to room temp after it’s baked, and then transfer to the fridge to chill at least 6 hours or up to 1-2 days before serving.
- Roasted Peach Juices – Be sure to pour the juice left on the pan from roasting the peaches over your cheesecake – it adds SO much flavor!
Recipe Variations:
- Frozen Peaches – See my note in the recipe card below about using frozen peaches when fresh are out of season.
- Fewer Recipe Steps – You can skip the cinnamon streusel if you want to make one less element in this recipe.
- Gluten-Free Cheesecake – Use gluten-free graham crackers in the crust, and omit the streusel or make it with your favorite gluten-free cup-for-cup flour blend.
Serving + Storing this Recipe:
The cheesecake must come to room temp after baking, and then chill in the fridge at least 6 hours or up to 1-2 days before slicing and serving. I recommend making the peaches for the topping just before serving. Store leftover cheesecake in an airtight container in the fridge for 4-7 days.
Special Tools:
- Springform Pan – This recipe uses a 9-inch springform pan.
- Offset Spatula – I use an offset spatula for so many things, including smoothing the batter evenly into the pan for this recipe.
This Peach Cobbler Cheesecake Recipe is an amazing treat for the summertime. It quickly became one of our favorite desserts. Happy baking!

Peach Cobbler Cheesecake
Ingredients
For the Roasted Peaches
- 10 medium ripe peaches, divided *See note for frozen peaches
- 5 tbsp granulated sugar
- 1 and 1/2 tsp cinnamon
- 1/4 tsp nutmeg
For the Graham Cracker Crust
- 1/2 cup salted butter, melted
- 2 cups graham cracker crumbs
- 2 tbsp granulated sugar
For the Cinnamon Streusel
- 1/2 cup salted butter, melted
- 2/3 cup brown sugar
- 1 cup + 2 tbsp all-purpose flour
- 1/2 tsp cinnamon
- pinch of salt
For the Cheesecake Batter
- 32 ounces full-fat block-style cream cheese, at room temp
- 1 and 1/2 cups granulated sugar
- 4 large eggs, at room temp
- 1 cup sour cream, at room temp
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
Instructions
- Roast the Peaches: Preheat your oven to 400 ° F. Slice 4 peaches. You'll want to make the peaches for the topping fresh the day you serve the cheesecake. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper, and toss the peach slices with 2 tbsp sugar, 1/2 tsp cinnamon, and 1/8 tsp nutmeg and let rest for 10 minutes to bring out the juices. Be sure to pour the juices onto the pan with the peach slices. Roast the peaches for 7-15 minutes, until desired tenderness is reached. Set aside to cool.
- Make the Crust: Turn oven to 350° F for the remainder of this recipe. Spray a 9-inch springform pan with nonstick spray and make sure the bottom is securely fastened. Stir together crust ingredients in a small bowl and press into prepared pan and up the sides of the pan. Bake this for 10 minutes. Set aside.
- Make the Cinnamon Streusel: Melt the butter in a medium mixing bowl. Stir the remaining streusel ingredients into the melted butter. You should have a crumbly mixture. Bake on a parchment-lined pan at 350° F for 8 minutes.
- Make the Cheesecake Filling: Remember that your cold ingredients need to come to room temp before you start or the filling won't turn out as well. In a large bowl, cream the softened cream cheese with a hand mixer on medium-high speed, until nice and creamy, about 1 minute. Add the sugar and mix until creamed with the cream cheese. Add the eggs, one at a time, mixing after each, on medium-low speed until just incorporated. Add the vanilla and sour cream, and mix until just incorporated. Pour half of the batter over the baked and cooled crust, then add the roasted peaches in an even layer. Sprinkle on 1/3 to 1/2 of the streusel. Pour on the remaining batter and smooth the top.
- Prepare the Water Bath + Bake: Get out a roasting pan. Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Place the cheesecake on a rack positioned in the center of the oven, and place the roasting pan on the rack below it. Pour the boiling water into the roasting pan. This is the best way to do a water bath – no possibility of leakage into your cheesecake!Bake cheesecake at 350 ° F for 88-91 minutes. When done, the cheesecake will have only a slight wobble in the center, and a toothpick inserted into the edge will come out clean, and will have a bit of thick batter when inserted into the center. (A clean knife is a good sign that you've over baked your cheesecake and it won't have that extra creamy texture.) Turn off the oven and crack the oven door open. Let the cheesecake cool in the oven for 1 hour before removing it.Keep an eye on the bake time, as ovens vary. Some people have said their cheesecake was done closer to 1 hour, but browning on the top with this particular cheesecake recipe does not necessarily indicate doneness.
- Cheesecake Cooling: Once the hour is up, remove the pan from the oven and let cool completely at room temp, then cover well with foil or plastic wrap and refrigerate at least 6 hours or up to 2 days before removing from the pan and serving.
- Serve + Store: Once ready to serve the cheesecake, make the roasted peaches for the peach topping. Repeat the steps above, this time using 6 medium peaches, sliced, with 3 tbsp sugar, 1 tsp cinnamon, and 1/8 tsp nutmeg. Let the peach slices cool to room temp on the pan and then place them on top of the chilled cheesecake with the remaining streusel. Be sure to drizzle on the juices from the pan! Slice and serve. Leftovers keep in an airtight container in the fridge for 4-6 days.
Sarah says
I just finished making this recipe as I type this, only thing I did change was I used cinnamon Graham crackers instead of the regular and I incorporated some extra chopped up peaches into the batter. Came out beautifully! ❤️❤️
Stephanie Simmons says
Thanks so much for taking the time to leave a review, Sarah!
SHALAHA J HARDEMAN says
I am currently baking your cheesecake right now. I made a few tweaks though. I added freeze dried mango to the batter. I also changed the crust. The idea came to me as I was roasting the peaches 🍑
Stephanie Simmons says
That sounds delicious, Shalaha! Please be sure to let me know how you enjoyed the recipe.
Liisa says
Excellent recipe. When I try this again, I will want to drop the temp to 325⁰ because mine was a little overcooked, even though I cooked only 80 minutes. Could be my oven or high altitude or both, but definitely worth trying again.
Stephanie Simmons says
Thanks for your review, Liisa! Glad you enjoyed the cheesecake.
Shawn says
I don’t know what I did wrong. My cheesecake cracked in the oven when I was baking it and I didn’t end up with any juices. I don’t know if the parchment paper soaked it up or what. Everyone else seemed to do fine, what am I doing wrong?
Stephanie Simmons says
Hi Shawn! That is odd. Were your peaches ripe? Did you skip the water bath? That’s the main reason a cheesecake will crack. It can also crack if you open the oven multiple times during the bake. Let me know – I’d love to help troubleshoot! I hope it still tasted good even with a few little flaws. 🙂
Shawn says
It did taste really good. After reading it again I saw that it was boiling water for the water bath. My peaches were ripe but for some reason when I baked them the juices kind of up a bit. Maybe left them in too long? I feel like I’m the only one that had trouble making this. Lol
Stephanie Simmons says
Hmm, I’m sorry I’m not sure why the peaches weren’t so juicy. Were your peaches mealy? This was a tricky year for peaches and some of them were hit or miss.
Shawn says
I don’t really cook or anything but this looked too good not to try. I’m pretty sure now that you’re supposed to dump the contents of the peach bowl onto the parchment lined baking pan. It didn’t show them dumping everything onto the pan. There were juices in my bowl. Idk just think I got confused cause it didn’t show it in the video.
Stephanie Simmons says
Hi Shawn! Ahh, that explains it. I’m so sorry that step wasn’t clear. I’ve edited the recipe card so it says to include the juices when roasting the peaches.
MICHAEL SAYERS says
Hello! Is 1/2 cup butter and 1 cup (+1 TBS) flour the correct measurements for the Streusel? Mine turned out very wet and not crumbly. Thanks!
Stephanie Simmons says
Hi Michael! Yes that’s correct. You can add more flour, 1 tbsp at a time to get it to a more crumbly consistency. Let me know how you enjoy the cheesecake!
Shayla says
Planning to make this either this evening or tomorrow afternoon. I do have perhaps a silly question, if I’m using peaches that are rather large would I use maybe 5 of them instead of 10? Thank you!
Stephanie Simmons says
Hi Shayla! I would do 6-7 but I also like having lots of peaches haha so your best judgement should be fine! Please be sure to let me know how you like the cheesecake 🙂
Shayla says
It was delicious! Family loved it!
Stephanie Simmons says
Thanks so much, Shayla!
KayEllen says
I was gifted about 10lbs of fresh peaches from my grandpa’s back yard orchard this week. I conveniently stumbled across this recipe on Instagram and just HAD to make it. This was my first try at making a baked cheesecake and I loved how easy to follow the recipe was. The top does turn out a little brown as noted in the recipe, but it is NOT overcooked. I love that it just adds a little depth of flavor to an already abundantly flavorful recipe; notes of creme brulee almost 😊 It is not too sweet, which I appreciate. I will be keeping this recipe on hand for next year’s peaches for sure!
Stephanie Simmons says
Thanks so much for taking the time to leave such a sweet review, KayEllen! I’m glad you enjoyed this cheesecake. Happy baking!
Mónica says
So delicious I’m a big fan of peaches and loved this is a cheesecake. I do a lot of baking and this is my husbands and friends new favorite. Thanks so much!!
Stephanie Simmons says
So glad to hear that, Mónica! Thanks for making my cheesecake 🙂
Blondeandvirgo says
Forgot to add 5 stars!!! Will be baking it again and hopefully not forgetting any ingredients and steps lol
Stephanie Simmons says
Thanks so much for the rave review!
Blondeandvirgo says
I made this and it was delicious! I forgot to add a block of cream cheese. I ended up using 3 blocks and not the 4 it calls for. Plus I spaced putting the crumble in the center with some of the peaches. Still got rave reviews from everyone that tried it.
Stephanie Simmons says
I’ve been there, haha! Glad it still worked out for you 🙂
Jasmine Hearon says
This recipe was awesome! It tastes great! I would trust anything Stephanie posts. 10/10
Stephanie Simmons says
Thanks so much for your kind words, Jasmine! That means so much to me.
Kim says
I made this and it was fantastic!!!!
Stephanie Simmons says
Thanks so much, Kim!
Emalee Marteney says
This recipe was very easy to follow and turned out SO delicious. All of my guests raved and a few even said it’s the best desert they’ve ever had.
Stephanie Simmons says
Thanks so much, Emalee! Comments like yours make my day. 🙂
Kim says
I made this recipe! It’s my first ever cheesecake and I think maybe I overbaked. I was hoping to maybe send photos and see if I could get your feedback on it.
Stephanie Simmons says
Hi Kim! Always happy to help. This cheesecake does tend to brown on top more than other cheesecakes, but that doesn’t necessarily mean it was over baked. Please feel free to send me photos at bluebowlblogging@gmail.com or send me a message on Instagram @bluebowlrecipes.
Amanda says
This was a huge hit with my trivia team. One of them even requested if I could make it again for his birthday. I will probably add a salted caramel drizzle next time around, but it was plenty flavorful in its original form. I baked for about 75min in my oven.
Stephanie Simmons says
Thanks so much Amanda! Glad everyone enjoyed it 🙂
Lindsay says
It was delicious!!! Everyone was so excited and said it was delicious. Will be repeating this all summer!!
Stephanie Simmons says
Thank you so much, Lindsay! So happy to hear that ☺️
Misty says
Should I double the recipe for a 9 X 13? Cheesecake competition for work, need at least 40 small tastes. This sounds amazing!!
Stephanie Simmons says
Hi Misty! I would not double it – i think the recipe as written would fit nicely in a 9×13 pan, and doubling it would probably be too much for a 9×13 pan. Please let me know how you like the cheesecake! Happy baking.
Tracey James says
I’m from the UK and never tasted Peach Cobbler before so wanted to give this a try whilst visiting family in Florida. I’ve made a lot of cheesecakes and this recipe is excellent. The peaches, streusel an cheesecake elements worked so well together! Everyone loved it and I’ll definitely be making it again.
Stephanie Simmons says
Thanks SO much, Tracey! So glad that this recipe was a hit with everyone. 🙂
Eleonora Gambaro says
This recipe is wonderful… I repeated it at home and I received a lot of compliments!!! Truly the best cheesecake ever made
Stephanie Simmons says
Thanks so much, Eleonora! That means so much to me. 🙂 Happy baking!
Aleks says
Delicious cake! For some reason my cake was already quite brown at about 70 minutes at 350, so I may try a lower temperature for longer next time. I skipped the streusel and added rum-soaked peach slices on top, and also added only a cup of sugar as the peaches were plenty sweet. Thanks for the great recipe!
Stephanie Simmons says
Glad you enjoyed this recipe, Aleks!
Erica says
I made this recipe for my husband’s birthday. It was delicious and received so many compliments. My only suggestion for other bakers is to watch the bake time. My cheesecake was fully baked in about an hour.
Stephanie Simmons says
Glad to hear that, Erica! And thanks for noting that about the bake time. I will add a note in the recipe card to keep an eye on it as everyone’s oven runs a little differently.
Taylah says
So easy and so so delicious!!
Stephanie Simmons says
Thanks so much, Taylah!
Debbie says
I made this today and wish I could add photos. It’s scrumptious! Perfect summer bbq dessert! Thank you!
Debbie in Simi Valley CA
Stephanie Simmons says
Thanks so much, Debbie! I believe I saw your photos on Instagram – your cheesecake looked absolutely gorgeous!
wendy says
Thank you so much, I will let you know how it turns out 🙂
Stephanie Simmons says
Thanks, Wendy!
Wendy Dartt says
Hi! Wondering if I can make this a day and a half in advance? Leaving the topping off until ready to serve? Thank you for your help with my question!!
Stephanie Simmons says
Hi Wendy! Yes, you absolutely can do that. You can keep the crumble for topping in a tupperware until ready to serve, and the peaches for the topping should be ok if made 1.5 days ahead, but I would probably make them the day of so they’re extra fresh. Please let me know how you like the cheesecake! 🙂
wendy says
Everyone loved it, it was gone in a matter of minutes! My oven tends to bake more quickly, so I stopped baking at 80 minutes. I think it could go for 77-78 even next time. I found that I had more peaches than needed (not a problem, they were still consumed), however, I think next time I will roast 3 on the first day and the remaining 7 on the following day. Also, I subbed in vanilla bean paste for extract, just a personal preference as I like the flecks it adds to the batter.
Stephanie Simmons says
So glad this cheesecake was a hit! I also love the visual effect of vanilla bean paste 🙂
Cakes by Gabbi says
This was sooo yummy. Used frozen peaches from my last visit to the Peach Truck and it was perfect.
Stephanie Simmons says
Thanks so much, Gabbi! 🙂
Malvika says
It turned out great … thanks a lot Stephanie!
Stephanie Simmons says
Thanks, Malvika! 🙂
Manuel says
5 stars rating for this amazing cheesecake ! C’est tellement délicieux ! Greetings from Lyon
Stephanie Simmons says
Thank you, Manuel!
Malvika says
Hey Stephanie .. can I half this recipe and make it in an 6 inch spring form pan … please help.
Stephanie Simmons says
Hi Malvika! I would recommend halving it and baking in a 9×9 square pan, as it still may be too much batter for a 6-inch springform pan to hold. Let me know how it goes!
Min says
I make a similar but turn it into tart pans with gram cracker crust. Perfect for summer parties. I use Fage yogurt in the cheesecake mix.
Stephanie Simmons says
Sounds yummy, Min! Glad you enjoyed this recipe 🙂
Sophie says
For the Water Bath + Bake, do you put the cheesecake pan in the roasting pan with the water? Or do you put the cheesecake pan on the top oven rack and the roasting pan with the water on the rack below?
Stephanie Simmons says
Hi Sophie! I recommend placing the cheesecake pan inside a 10-inch metal cake pan (or something similar) and placing that inside the roasting pan. Otherwise, place the roasting pan on the rack below the cheesecake. Even with foil around the pan, some water always seems to get in and make the crust a tad soggy so I no longer recommend that method! Hope this helps. Please be sure to let me know how you like the cheesecake!
Sarah says
Hi! Wondering if I want to do this with blackberries should I still toss them in sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg or something different? And then roast still or on the stovetop?
Stephanie Simmons says
Hi Sarah! I think you could try with roasted blackberries. I would do just sugar & cinnamon but reduce the cinnamon a tad. I would try 1 to 1 1/2 cups blackberries for in the center and another 1 to 1 1/2 cups on top. Keep an eye on the roast time, it will probably be shorter! Let me know how it turns out ☺️
Dominique says
The best thing I have made over and over. It gets easier to make each time and has so much flavor. The crumble is essential.
Stephanie Simmons says
Thank you so much!
jessica says
Question before trying this recipe! I only have a 9 and 3/4 inch springform pan (didn’t even notice until now, how random), will this work?
Stephanie Simmons says
Hi Jessica, that should be just fine! Let me know how you like the cheesecake.
Jazmyne says
My brother asked me to make him a Peach Cobbler cheesecake and after searching for what seems forever- I stumbled upon this recipe. Giiirrrrlll (and guys) lemme tell you! My family looooved this cheesecake. It was devoured within minutes! I really enjoyed making this cuz the smell that was in my kitchen- hunnnny!!! So yummy. I could’ve baked it for less time (I personally think I over baked it) so next time I’ll bake for less time and it will be even better!!!
Stephanie Simmons says
Thank you for the rave review, Jazmyne! ☺️
Kristen says
I made this for my mom for Mother’s Day. It was a huge hit!!! The recipe was easy to follow and the frozen peach option was great for when peaches aren’t in season.
Stephanie Simmons says
I’m so glad to hear that, Kristen!
Kathi says
Do you not need to peel the peaches? thanks!
Stephanie Simmons says
Hi Kathi! I don’t peel my peaches because the skin doesn’t bother me and because I’m a little lazy haha. Feel free to peel them if that’s what you prefer! 🙂
Sil says
Amazing! It was definitely worth the effort. I made it with frozen peaches and it turned out so delicious.
This was my first time making a cheesecake. Next time I will be making the strudel and peaches the day before so it cuts out some of the work the following day. Make this ASAP.
Stephanie Simmons says
Thanks so much, Sil! 🙂
Talisha says
The cheesecake turned out perfectly! The peaches and streusel were a nice addition and added the perfect textural element. Everyone loved it and went back for more!
Stephanie Simmons says
Thanks for leaving a review, Talisha! So glad you enjoyed this cheesecake. 🙂
Jill says
Made this cheesecake for my husband‘s 35th birthday. Everyone raved about it and I’ve already shared the recipe with friends! makes me sad I’m allergic to peaches! 😩
Stephanie Simmons says
I’m so sorry to hear that you’re allergic to peaches! I’m glad this cheesecake was a hit with everyone you shared it with, though. 🙂
Sil says
Delicious! My first time making cheesecake and it came out amazing. Not overly sweet. Perfect.
Stephanie Simmons says
Thanks so much, Sil!
Marcayla says
Could this be done with other fruit? Like cherries for a cherry cobbler vibe?
Stephanie Simmons says
Yes, I think that would work! A little bit of digging online tells me that you’ll want to roast the cherries at 450 degrees F, with 2 tablespoons of sugar per pint of cherries. Let me know how the recipe turns out!
Marcayla says
So the answer is yes! Cherries work beautifully in this recipe. I made it for our Easter gathering and my father in law decided to hide it and keep it all to himself!! Lol
I also made a second one following the written recipe with frozen peaches and it came out amazing as well! Definitely a crowd pleaser
Stephanie Simmons says
So glad to hear that this worked with the cherries, Marcayla! Thanks for reporting back, and glad everyone enjoyed the cheesecakes! 🙂
Lupita Garza says
Made this cheesecake…came out amazing!!! My family loved it….recipe is easy to follow as well. Scrumptious…..
Stephanie Simmons says
Thanks Lupita! ☺️
Debbie says
This cheesecake was an amazing addition to our Thanksgiving dinner. Everyone loved it will definitely make again and again
Stephanie Simmons says
Thanks so much, Debbie!
Catherine says
This was absolutely delicious! It was my first attempt at cheesecake ever, and the recipe was clear and easy to follow.
Stephanie Simmons says
Glad to hear that, Catherine!
Molly says
I made this for a work dinner party and it was the best thing I have ever baked. The chefs I work with lost their minds over it, it was perfect in every way. HIGHLY recommend making. I’ll be making two more for a summer Christmas in Melbourne!
Stephanie Simmons says
Thanks so much, Molly! Your kind comment made my day. 🙂
Tameka says
Definitely one of the best cheesecakes I have EVER had!! I did the version with frozen peaches, and it worked perfectly. I did omit the cornstarch because I didn’t have any on hand, but it didn’t cause any problems for me. Thanks so much!!!
Stephanie Simmons says
Thanks so much for your kind comment, Tameka! Happy Thanksgiving!
Gem says
I just finished making the cheesecake it was delicious! but just wanted to tell everyone that’s complaining about the brown part of the cheesecake but it’s as simple as just throwing a piece of foil on top of the cheesecake and you won’t end up with a brown top!
Stephanie Simmons says
Thanks so much Gem! Happy Thanksgiving!
Michelle Fox says
Can you use apples instead of peaches? Like a apple crisp cheesecake?
Stephanie Simmons says
Yes I think that would work! They may need to roast a bit longer since they’re more firm than peaches are.
Katie says
Wondering if you peel the fresh peaches?? Wanting to make this for thanksgiving as an alternative to pie and sounds like it’s a hit with everyone! Thanks!
Stephanie Simmons says
Hi Katie! I never peel my peaches because the peels don’t bother me, but you can certainly peel them if you like. Please be sure to leave a comment letting me know how you liked this recipe! 💙
Kym pooschke says
This was amazing cheese cake. Used farm fresh peaches.
Stephanie Simmons says
Thanks, Kym! 🙂
Sue says
I made this with fresh Oregon peaches and it was sooooo good! I’m sure it would be delicious with frozen ones as well. My friends raved about how good this was!
Stephanie Simmons says
Thanks so much, Sue! Glad everyone enjoyed it. 🙂
Megan says
Really delicious cheesecake and perfect way to use summer peaches. It was a real crowd pleasing recipe.
Stephanie Simmons says
Glad to hear it, Megan! 🙂
Janette says
I made this the other day and it was absolutely amazing! I made it with the frozen peaches. Everyone that tried it had nothing but good things to say. I strongly recommend
Stephanie Simmons says
Thanks so much, Janette! ☺️
Chanel says
I’ve made this and it was so delicious! Exceeded my expectations, and everyone loved it ❤️ People were impressed, thank you for this recipe!
Stephanie Simmons says
Thanks so much, Chanel!
Erica says
I love this Peach Cobbler Cheesecake! It is truly a showstopper. If I make it again, I’ll slice the peaches for the middle layer smaller, but that’s the only things I’d change. Delicious!
Stephanie Simmons says
Thanks so much, Erica!
Odin says
Hello, and thank you for this recipe – it looks amazing! I’m planning on making this for a loved one’s birthday coming up and was wondering: would it be doable to pre-roast the peaches and bake the crust a day or two ahead of time (crust would be kept in the freezer)? I’ve seen some recipes that say go for it, and others that don’t recommend that and say to do all the same day, so was curious for your input. Thank you in advance 😁
Stephanie Simmons says
Hi Odin! Sorry for the slow reply. I think you could pre-roast the peaches and I think the crust idea would work, but I haven’t tried it so I can’t guarantee it of course. My gut would probably be to make the crust the same day you plan to bake the whole cheesecake. Let me know how it all turns out! 🙂
Amanda says
THE BEST cheesy peachy cobbler cheesecake ever!
I’ve made it twice in a week and was the most talked about dessert around.
Stephanie Simmons says
Aw, I love that! Thanks so much Amanda. 🙂
Tania says
Delicious!!! My partner is Southern, which means any variation of peach cobbler is welcomed and this did not disappoint. Cheesecake had an almost caramel-y taste to it and the peaches were divine. Great recipe to learn how to multi-task as a baker as well. Thank you!
Stephanie Simmons says
Thanks for that kind compliment, Tania! So glad you liked this recipe. 🙂
Vivian says
Hello,
I’m guessing that the streusel in the middle becomes somewhat cakey after baking?
Stephanie Simmons says
Hi Vivian! I wouldn’t describe it as cakey, I think it retains some of it’s crunch and then that lessens the longer you keep leftovers. I hope you enjoy this recipe – let me know what you think of it! 🙂
Heather says
I saw this recipe on Instagram a few wks ago. I have two huge peach trees so I decided to give it a try. This was my first cheesecake that I have ever baked . Loved it. It’s creamy , not too sweet. Can’t wait to make it for friends!
Stephanie Simmons says
So glad you loved it, Heather!
Grey Street Cupcakes says
Delicious is an understatement!
It is worth all of the time.
My friends were beyond impressed and were still talking about it the next day.
Stephanie Simmons says
Thanks so much for your kind comment!
Britt says
Love this recipe! Made it at home and turned out amazing!
Stephanie Simmons says
Glad to hear that, Britt!
Ashley says
“This might be the best thing I’ve ever put in my mouth!”-coworker after eating. This cheesecake was a huge hit at work and also pretty easy to make. I’ve never made cheesecake before and it came out so good!!! If you are new to baking or cheesecake, don’t be scared, you can do it, and you wont regret it!!! Just make sure you sure you start it early, there are a lot of cooling steps. You don’t want to try to *whip* this up before bed.
Stephanie Simmons says
Thanks SO much for the kind review, Ashley! 🙂
Becky Eichelberger says
So simple and delicious! I made this but switched the crust to nilla wafers/gingersnaps. It was a great end of Summer treat for our family!
Stephanie Simmons says
That’s such fun alternative crust idea! Glad you liked this one, Becky. 🙂
Colby says
Everything was going great for me and during the baking process (about 1 hour and 10 in) the cheesecake was cracked and a deep brown color on top! I checked and it was also above the desired internal temp by that point too. I just assumed the bake time on this recipe would be accurate but it ended up burning my cheesecake even before it hit 88 minutes. I am only sad and confused at this point, but hope my family loves it still! Not sure why no one else had this sad result..
Stephanie Simmons says
Hi Colby! I’m curious to hear how the cheesecake tasted since you left this review before even trying it. This cheesecake does tend to brown on the outside more than a plain cheesecake, but it should still be fine inside! 🙂
Hopi Lockett says
It tastes as good as it looks! I didn’t melt the butter for the streusel, but other than that I followed the recipe. Loved not having to do the traditional waterbath. Thank you!
Stephanie Simmons says
So glad you enjoyed this recipe, Hopi!
Gina says
Excellent! I used way fewer peaches (5 total) just because they were large peaches, and as it was, the cheesecake rose to just above the springform pan. Everyone raved!
Stephanie Simmons says
Thanks, Gina! Glad it was a hit. 🙂
Scott says
This cheesecake was a hit with the guests at our progressive dinner. Lots of steps but trust me when I say it’s worth it. Will definitely make again!
Stephanie Simmons says
So glad to hear that, Scott! Happy baking. 🙂
Hannah says
This cheesecake was absolutely amazing! Definitely making it again soon.
Stephanie Simmons says
Thanks so much, Hannah! 🙂
Tori says
Very straightforward and tasty! My family was blown away by its beauty and taste!
Stephanie Simmons says
Thanks so much, Tori! 🙂
Hannah says
Cannot say enough good things about this recipe! Definitely do fresh peaches. I don’t even like cheesecake much and this was to die for. 10/10 would make again. It’s not hard at all. Easy to follow. Just takes some time. Forgot to say I cooked the cheesecake about 20 min less than the time told.
Stephanie Simmons says
Thanks, Hannah! 🙂

Cathi says
I made this recipe exactly as written (not easy for me!) and the cheesecake was amazing!! The cheesecake was VERY creamy and fresh peaches are the only way to go. I am definitely saving this recipe. Make sure you have time set aside as it takes the time it takes, but you will be glad you did!
Stephanie Simmons says
So glad you tried this and enjoyed it, Cathi! 🙂
Em says
Just incredible! A labour of love for sure, but worth it.
Stephanie Simmons says
Thanks so much, Em! 🙂
Melissa says
You absolutely can NOT just substitute cup for cup gluten free flour for the streusel. It was not crumbly at all and melted out to fill the entire sheet pan. I baked it a few extra minutes and crumbled up the resulting sheet-pan sized cookie I ended up with. Not the same but it made delicious crunchies for the topping.
Stephanie Simmons says
Hi Melissa – thanks for noting that. I hope you enjoyed the cheesecake regardless! 🙂
Kelli Warrick says
I made this cheesecake last weekend and my guests and my husband and I all LOVED it! It turned out so beautiful! I cooked all of the peaches at the same time and they were delicious! I will definitely make this again!
Stephanie Simmons says
I’m so glad to hear that, Kelli! 🙂
CB says
Good recipe but the timing for baking the cheesecake is way too long, mine burned but still was creamy. Will try it again and adjust the time. The water bath on the lower rack did not work at all. Will go old school on the next round as well.
Stephanie Simmons says
Hi! I’m a bit confused about the comment that it was burnt but still creamy – the top does tend to brown on this one more than with other cheesecakes, but every time I’ve made it, it’s still been lovely and creamy on the inside. Let me know what you think if you try it again!
Dorann Longmore says
I made this cheesecake the other day. It’s probably one of the best cheesecakes I have ever made. I like making seasonal items and since they’re such a small window in the summer for fresh peaches I decided this would be a good dessert. I brought it to work and it was very well received. They all loved it.
Stephanie Simmons says
So glad to hear that everyone enjoyed this ecipe, Dorann! And thanks for your kind comment. 🙂
Sheree says
Will be trying this peach cheesecake. How do I prepare the springform pan prior to baking? Also how do I remove the bottom of the springform once the car is cooked and ready to serve? That has to be away of doing it without messing up the beauty of the cake.
Thanks,
ADK lake girl.
Stephanie Simmons says
Hi! You don’t need to do anything to prepare the springform pan. To remove the bottom of the pan, I use a pancake flipper or something similar and run it between the crust and the pan to loosen, then I simply tilt it so it slides off onto a serving plate. Happy baking! Let me know how you like this cheesecake. 🙂
Karon says
Just THE best! I think I’m in love.
Stephanie Simmons says
Thanks so much, Karon! Glad you enjoyed this recipe.
Amy says
So bummed. I’ve never made a cheesecake before. I followed the directions exactly. I checked in the cheesecake at 80 mins and it was completely brown! So disappointed.
Stephanie Simmons says
Hi Amy! I’ve had my cheesecakes brown on top in the past, but they still turned out fine and tasted delicious. How was the cheesecake once you cut into it? And, if it’s browning quite a bit, I recommend using an oven thermometer to check that your oven is at the correct temp, and not running hot.
Lynsie says
Did you leave the skins on the peaches?
Stephanie Simmons says
Hi Lynsie! Yes I did, they don’t bother me but you can certainly peel them first if you prefer no skins. 🙂 Let me know how you like the cheesecake!
Rebekah says
Okay ok omg this is an amazing yummy recipe!! Kids highly approve!
Stephanie Simmons says
Thanks so much, Rebekah! 🙂 Glad it was enjoyed by all.
Michelle says
Delicious cheesecake! Made this for a picnic and everyone raved about it. Will definitely make again.
Stephanie Simmons says
Thanks so much, Michelle! 🙂
Hannah says
Wonderful recipe! I will definitely be making this again! I used half mascarpone and half cream cheese and added a little cardamom where it called for cinnamon and nutmeg! Heavenly
Stephanie Simmons says
Cardamom sounds like a delicious addition to this recipe! So glad you enjoyed this cheesecake, Hannah. 🙂
Clare says
Could I use tinned peaches?
Stephanie Simmons says
Hi Clare! Do you mean canned peaches? I think so, I would be sure to drain the liquid and use ones that don’t have added sugar so it isn’t too sweet. If they’re already tender to your liking, you could skip the roasting step and just toss them in the same amounts of sugar and spices to have that added flavor. Let me know how you like the recipe!
Bernadette says
Wow! What an absolutely delicious recipe! The steps were straightforward and produced a beautiful cheesecake that the entire family enjoyed on a hot summer day! Some cheesecake recipes can be overly heavy and sweet, but this recipe has great balance. The peach & streusel layer was particularly good. I made a couple subtle tweaks/additions: I browned the butter used in the recipe as I personally like the depth of flavor that adds when baking. I also topped the cheesecake with a layer of homemade bourbon whipped cream and then decorated with the remaining peaches and streusel. I can’t wait to bake again! Thank you!
Stephanie Simmons says
Thanks so much for your in-depth review, Bernadette! I’m so glad you liked this cheesecake! The brown butter streusel and bourbon whipped cream both sound SO amazing – I’ll have to try that next time I make this one! 🙂
Jason says
Best cheesecake yet, my coworkers devoured it and I only had one piece. I’ll definitely use this recipe again. Great presentation and pics on Instagram.
Stephanie Simmons says
So glad to hear that, Jason! Thanks for your kind comment.
Mark says
Yummy

Davi says
This is one of my favorite recipes, ever! SO delicious!
Stephanie Simmons says
So glad to hear that, Davi! ☺️
Kate says
Could I sub plain greek yogurt for the sour cream in this recipe without any major problems?
Stephanie Simmons says
Hi Kate! I think it should work fine, but I have to give the disclaimer that I haven’t tried it myself. Do let me know how it goes if you try it! I’d recommend using full fat greek yogurt. Happy baking!
Abby says
This recipe is my new favorite, a keeper for sure! I made yesterday and followed the instructions as written. Not only is it beautiful but delicious too! I already promised my family to make it and bring to a gathering next weekend after they saw the end result.
Stephanie Simmons says
Thanks so much, Abby! Glad to hear you all enjoyed it. 🙂
Linda says
Do you peel the peaches?
Stephanie Simmons says
I don’t because the peels don’t bother me, but you can peel them if you like! Here’s an easy method for peeling them – https://tastesbetterfromscratch.com/how-to-peel-peaches/. Happy baking – let me know how you like the cheesecake! 🙂
Cathy says
Hi!! Any suggestions if anyone has tried to make this gluten free? Sorry if I missed thos if you did write it
Thank you!
Cathy
Stephanie Simmons says
Hi! Use gluten-free graham crackers in the crust, and use a 1:1 gluten-free flour blend in the streusel, or omit the streusel. Let me know if you give this cheesecake a try! 🙂 Happy baking.
Tasha says
I love to do a butter and nut (usually pecan) crust to make cheesecake GF. Much more delicious than graham cracker crust in my opinion!
Stephanie Simmons says
Great idea, Tasha!
Arthur says
There’s no temperature for what to bake the cheesecake at.
Stephanie Simmons says
Hi Arthur! Bake the cheesecake at 350F, as the recipe states. Enjoy!
Alicia Parker says
Can you use a rectangular baking dish instead of a springform round pan? I’m making it for a lot of guests. How would I adjust the ingredients?
Stephanie Simmons says
Hi Alicia! I think a 9×13 pan would work – I wouldn’t try an 8×8 or 9×9, it would probably be too small. I would keep the recipe as is and start with a shorter bake time and check for doneness in the same way the recipe describes. Let me know how it goes! Happy baking.:)
