Step-by-Step Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 325°F (163°C) and grease a 9-inch springform pan.
- In a mixing bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, ¼ cup granulated sugar, and melted butter until it resembles wet sand. Press into the bottom of the prepared pan and bake for 8 minutes.
- Beat softened cream cheese until smooth, then gradually add 1 cup of granulated sugar and blend well.
- Add eggs one at a time, mixing after each addition. Fold in sour cream and flour until just combined.
- Pour half of the cheesecake batter over the cooled crust, then layer half of the peach mixture on top.
- Pour the remaining cheesecake batter on top, followed by the rest of the peach mixture. Sprinkle with pecans if desired.
- Bake for 50-60 minutes until the edges are set and the center jiggles slightly.
- Turn off the oven, crack the door open, and let the cheesecake cool inside for about an hour.
- Refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight before serving.

Notes
Ensure all ingredients are at room temperature for a smoother batter. Mix gently to avoid introducing air that leads to cracks. Chill well before serving for the best flavor and texture.
