Ingredients
Scale

- 1/8 cup light brown sugar
- 1/2 tsp cinnamon
- 6 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
- 2 lbs frozen peaches (defrosted)
- 1 tbsp lemon juice
- 1/4 cup light or dark brown sugar
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 2 tsp cornstarch
- 8 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
- 1 1/3 cup flour
- 1/2 cup light brown sugar
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 1/2 tsp cinnamon
- 24 oz cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 1/2 tsp flour or cornstarch
- 3 large eggs, room temperature
- 3/4 cup sour cream
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line and grease the bottom and sides of an 8-inch springform pan.
- In a bowl, mix graham cracker crumbs, brown sugar, cinnamon, and melted butter. Press this mixture into the pan and bake for 10 minutes. Then, reduce the oven temperature to 325°F (163°C) and let it cool.
- In another bowl, combine lemon juice, sugars, cinnamon, and cornstarch with the peaches. Stir until the peaches are well-coated.
- For the crumb topping, mix melted butter, flour, brown sugar, granulated sugar, and cinnamon until crumbly.
- For the cheesecake filling, beat the cream cheese until smooth. Add the sugar and then the flour or cornstarch. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then mix in the sour cream and vanilla extract.
- To assemble the cheesecake, pour half of the filling into the crust. Layer with peaches and crumb topping. Repeat this step and add the remaining crumb topping.
- Wrap the pan in foil and place it in a roasting dish filled with water. Bake for 90 minutes. Let it cool in the oven for 30 minutes.
- Refrigerate for at least 6 hours. Roast the remaining peaches at 400°F (204°C) for 12-15 minutes.
- After cooling, top the cheesecake with roasted peaches and crumb topping. Slice and serve.
