Tips to Bring Perfection to Your Dish!

1. Use Ripe but Firm Peaches

• Choose ripe peaches for natural sweetness, but make sure they’re not overly soft to hold their shape after roasting.

2. Roast Peaches for Enhanced Flavor

• Roasting caramelizes the sugars, intensifying the peachy flavor. Spread them evenly on a baking sheet and roast at 375°F (190°C) for 15-20 minutes before layering them onto the cheesecake.

3. Pack the Graham Cracker Crust Firmly

• Use the bottom of a measuring cup or glass to firmly press down the crust to prevent crumbling when slicing.

4. Don’t Overmix the Cheesecake Batter

• Overmixing incorporates excess air, leading to cracks when baking. Beat just until smooth and creamy.

5. Bring Ingredients to Room Temperature

• Cream cheese, eggs, and sour cream should be at room temperature for a lump-free, velvety texture.

6. Bake in a Water Bath for Even Cooking

• Wrap the pan in foil and place it in a hot water bath to ensure gentle, even baking and prevent cracks.

7. Avoid Overbaking

• The cheesecake should be slightly jiggly in the center when removed from the oven—overbaking results in a dry texture.

8. Let It Cool Gradually

• Cool the cheesecake inside the oven with the door slightly open for about an hour before transferring it to the fridge. This prevents drastic temperature changes that cause cracking.

9. Chill for at Least 4 Hours (Overnight is Best!)

• A well-chilled cheesecake sets properly and enhances flavors. Overnight chilling gives the best results.

10. Add Streusel Right Before Serving for Crunch

• To keep the cinnamon streusel crisp, sprinkle it on top just before serving so it doesn’t absorb moisture from the cheesecake.
