Peach Berry Cheesecake (Print-Friendly Version)

A smooth cheesecake topped with juicy peaches and berries on a crumbly, buttery crust. Perfect for warm-weather desserts.

# Ingredients:

→ Crust Ingredients

01 - 1/4 cup granulated sugar
02 - 1 1/2 cups crushed graham crackers
03 - 1/2 cup butter, melted

→ Filling Ingredients

04 - 3 large eggs
05 - 1 cup sour cream
06 - 24 oz softened cream cheese
07 - 1 tsp vanilla
08 - 1 cup white sugar

→ Topping Options

09 - 2 peaches, sliced thin
10 - 1 cup of fresh berries (like raspberries, blueberries, or diced strawberries)

# Steps:

01 - Set your oven to 325°F, and coat the inside of a 9-inch springform pan with grease so your dessert comes out easily.
02 - In a bowl, blend the crushed graham crackers with butter and sugar. Push this into the pan base, pressing it down to make a firm layer.
03 - Using an electric mixer, blend cream cheese until it’s smooth. Toss in sugar and vanilla, and beat again till fluffy.
04 - Crack in an egg, beat until fully combined, then move to the next. Repeat until all eggs are mixed evenly.
05 - Give in the sour cream as the last step, stirring till the mixture is silky. Pour it onto your crust so it spreads evenly.
06 - Place slices of peaches and handfuls of berries on top of the batter. Get creative with how you lay it out!
07 - Pop it in the oven for about 50-60 minutes. When the middle is just barely jiggly, pull it out. Cool down fully, then refrigerate for 4+ hours.

# Notes:

01 - Mix and match different berries for a colorful touch.
02 - Add extra fruit just before serving for extra flair.
03 - Softened cream cheese blends more easily, so let it warm up first.
