- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1 tsp ground cinnamon
- 1/4 tsp ground nutmeg
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1/2 cup (113 g) unsalted butter, softened
- 1/2 cup packed brown sugar
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 large egg
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 cup (about 2 medium peaches), peeled and finely chopped
- 1/3 cup rolled oats (optional)
- 2 tbsp cinnamon sugar topping
- 1/2 cup powdered sugar (optional glaze)
- 1 tbsp milk (optional glaze)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line baking sheets with parchment paper.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt.
- In a separate bowl, cream softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
- Add egg and vanilla extract to the butter mixture and mix until fully combined.
- Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients until a soft dough forms.
- Pat chopped peaches dry with paper towels and gently fold them into the dough. Stir in oats if using.
- Scoop dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing cookies apart evenly.
- Sprinkle cinnamon sugar lightly over the tops for extra cobbler flavor.
- Bake for 12 to 15 minutes or until edges are lightly golden while centers remain soft.
- Let cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
- For an optional glaze, mix powdered sugar with milk and drizzle lightly over cooled cookies.
- Serve warm or at room temperature and enjoy.
Notes
- Pat peaches dry before adding to avoid excess moisture in the dough.
- Do not overmix the dough to maintain soft and tender cookies.
- Store cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 4 days.
- Freeze baked cookies for up to 2 months in a sealed container with parchment between layers.
- Warm slightly before serving for a peach cobbler-inspired texture and flavor.
- Fresh, canned, or frozen peaches can be used, but canned peaches should be drained thoroughly.
