Ingredients
2 cups all-purpose flour
16 oz cream cheese, softened
3 cups fresh peaches, peeled and diced
1 cup unsalted butter, melted and cooled
1.5 cups granulated sugar, divided
2 large eggs, room temperature
1.5 tsp ground cinnamon
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a 9×13 inch pan with parchment paper.
Combine 2 cups flour, 1 cup sugar, and 1 cup butter until it forms coarse crumbs.
Press two-thirds of the crumb mixture into the prepared pan and bake for 12 minutes.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the softened cream cheese and remaining sugar until smooth.
Add the eggs to the cream cheese mixture one at a time, beating until combined.
Spread the cheesecake mixture evenly over the pre-baked base.
Top with diced peaches and sprinkle the reserved crumb mixture and cinnamon over the fruit.
Bake for 35 minutes until the center is set.
Cool completely at room temperature then refrigerate for at least 6 hours before slicing.
Notes
Ensure all ingredients are at room temperature to avoid lumps in the cheesecake batter. To check for doneness, look for the edges to firm up slightly while the center remains set but soft. Use high-quality Ceylon cinnamon for a better flavor profile.
