Ingredients

Peaches

  • 30.5 ounces peach slices in syrup, two 15.25 ounce cans

  • ¼ cup light brown sugar, packed

  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract

  • ¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon

Crumble Topping

  • ¾ cup all purpose flour

  • ⅓ cup light brown sugar, packed

  • ¾ teaspoon ground cinnamon

  • ¼ teaspoon salt

  • ¼ cup unsalted butter, melted and slightly cooled

Crust

  • 1 cup graham cracker crumbs

  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar

  • 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted and slightly cooled

  • ½ teaspoon salt

Cheesecake Filling

  • 16 ounces cream cheese, softened to room temperature

  • ½ cup granulated sugar

  • ⅓ cup sour cream, room temperature

  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

  • 2 large eggs, room temperature

  • 1 tablespoon all purpose flour

Step by Step: How to Make Peach Cobbler Cheesecake Bites

  1. Start by preheating your oven to 350°F. Line a standard 12 cup muffin pan with paper liners to ensure easy removal later.
  2. In a medium saucepan over medium heat, combine the canned peaches with their syrup, brown sugar, vanilla, and cinnamon. Stir gently to avoid breaking the slices. Bring the mixture to a gentle boil, then reduce to low and let it simmer for about 5 to 6 minutes. The syrup should slightly thicken and the flavors should blend together. Remove from heat and allow to cool.
  3. For the crumble topping, mix flour, brown sugar, cinnamon, salt, and melted butter in a bowl. Use a fork to combine until crumbly. Chill the mixture in the refrigerator while you prepare the remaining components.
  4. Next, make the crust by mixing graham cracker crumbs, sugar, melted butter, and salt until it resembles wet sand. Spoon about 1 to 1 ½ tablespoons into each muffin liner and press firmly to form an even layer. Bake the crusts for 5 minutes, then cool completely.
  5. For the filling, beat the cream cheese until smooth and creamy. Add sugar, sour cream, and vanilla, mixing gently until combined. Incorporate the eggs one at a time on low speed, followed by the flour. Mix just until smooth to avoid adding excess air.
  6. Evenly divide the cheesecake batter among the muffin cups, filling nearly to the top. Using a slotted spoon, place 2 to 3 peach slices on each cheesecake, allowing excess syrup to drip off.
  7. Sprinkle 1 to 1 ½ tablespoons of crumble topping over each, making sure the peaches remain slightly visible.
  8. Bake for 18 to 20 minutes until the crumble turns lightly golden and the centers are set. Cool completely at room temperature before refrigerating for 2 to 3 hours until fully chilled and firm.

Helpful Tips

Use room temperature ingredients for a smooth cheesecake batter without lumps.

Avoid overmixing the filling to prevent cracks and excess air bubbles.

Press the crust firmly to ensure it holds together when removing from liners.

Chill thoroughly before serving. Cheesecake develops better flavor and texture after proper refrigeration.

For clean removal, gently run a butter knife along the liner before lifting.

Substitutions And Variations

You can easily customize these mini cheesecakes.

Fresh peaches can replace canned peaches during peak season. Simply slice and cook them with a bit of sugar and lemon juice.

Swap graham crackers for vanilla wafer crumbs for a slightly sweeter crust.

Add chopped pecans to the crumble topping for extra crunch.

For a fall twist, substitute peaches with spiced apples.

If you prefer a lighter version, use reduced fat cream cheese and light sour cream, though the texture may be slightly less rich.

Storage Instructions

Store Peach Cobbler Cheesecake Bites in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.

For longer storage, freeze them without toppings for up to 2 months. Wrap each cheesecake individually in plastic wrap and place in a freezer safe container. Thaw overnight in the refrigerator before serving.

Avoid leaving them at room temperature for more than 2 hours to maintain freshness and food safety.
