How to make Peach Cheesecake

For the crust

  1. Step 1

    In a bowl, combine the flour, sugar, and salt. Mix well and add the cold butter, cut into small pieces.

  2. Step 2

  3. Step 3

    Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and refrigerate for 1 hour.

    Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F) and bake the crust for 10 minutes. Remove from the oven and let it cool.
