Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups Graham cracker crumbs
- 0.25 cups Granulated sugar
- 0.5 cups Unsalted butter, melted
- 8 oz Cream cheese, softened
- 0.5 cups Powdered sugar
- 1 tsp Vanilla extract
- 0.5 cups Heavy whipping cream
- 3 cups Fresh peaches, peeled and sliced
- 0.25 cups Peach preserves
- 1 tbsp Water
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
In a medium bowl, mix together the graham cracker crumbs, granulated sugar, and melted butter until the mixture resembles wet sand.
Press the crumb mixture firmly and evenly into the bottom and sides of a 9-inch pie pan to form the crust.
Bake the crust in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes until lightly golden. Remove and let it cool completely.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract using a hand mixer until smooth and creamy.
In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form, then gently fold it into the cream cheese mixture until fully combined.
Spread the cream cheese filling evenly into the cooled crust, smoothing the top with a spatula.
Arrange the sliced peaches decoratively over the cream cheese filling in concentric circles or any desired pattern.
In a small saucepan, combine the peach preserves and water, heating gently over low heat until melted and smooth. Stir well.
Using a pastry brush, glaze the sliced peaches with the warm peach preserve mixture to give them a shiny finish.
Refrigerate the pie for at least 2-3 hours or until fully set before serving.
Slice and enjoy your homemade Peaches and Cream Cheese Pie!
