Berry Peach Cheesecake is a luscious dessert that perfectly combines juicy peaches and vibrant mixed berries in a smooth and creamy cheesecake base. This dessert balances sweet, tangy, and rich flavors with a buttery graham cracker crust, making it an elegant and refreshing treat ideal for any occasion.

Ingredients

Scale

Crust

  • 1 ½ cups graham cracker crumbs (or gluten-free graham cracker crumbs)
  • 5 tablespoons melted butter

Cheesecake Filling

  • 24 oz (680g) cream cheese, softened
  • ½ cup granulated sugar
  • ½ cup sour cream
  • 3 large eggs, at room temperature
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup fresh peaches, diced
  • 1 cup mixed berries (strawberries, blueberries, raspberries)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Crust: Crush graham crackers until finely ground and mix with melted butter. Press the mixture firmly into the bottom of a springform pan to form an even crust layer. Chill in the refrigerator for 10-15 minutes to set while preparing the filling.
  2. Make the Cheesecake Filling: Beat the cream cheese in a large bowl until smooth and creamy. Gradually add sugar and mix until combined. Stir in sour cream, then add eggs one at a time, mixing gently after each addition. Finally, mix in vanilla extract.
  3. Add the Fruit: Gently fold diced fresh peaches and mixed berries into the cheesecake batter, ensuring even distribution without breaking the fruit.
  4. Bake the Cheesecake: Pour the filling over the prepared crust and smooth the top with a spatula. Bake at 325°F (160°C) for 55-65 minutes until the edges are set and the center slightly jiggles when tapped.
  5. Cool and Chill: Remove from the oven and let cool to room temperature. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight to set and develop flavors.

Notes

  • Use room temperature cream cheese and eggs for a smooth batter.
  • Do not overmix to avoid cracks in the cheesecake.
  • Consider baking with a water bath to maintain even heat and prevent cracking.
  • Choose the ripest peaches and freshest berries for best results.
  • Chill cheesecake properly for firm slices and optimal flavor.
