Peach Cobbler Cookies 

Instructions

1. Preheat the Oven

• Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

2. Cream the Butter and Sugars

• In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy. This should take about 2-3 minutes.

3. Add the Eggs and Vanilla

• Beat in the eggs one at a time, then add the vanilla extract, mixing until well combined.

4. Combine Dry Ingredients

• In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, ground cinnamon, and salt.

5. Mix Dry Ingredients with Wet Ingredients

• Gradually add the dry ingredient mixture to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix!

6. Fold in the Peaches

• Gently fold in the diced peaches (and oats and nuts if using) until evenly distributed throughout the dough.

7. Scoop and Bake

• Using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, drop heaping spoonfuls of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart. Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden.

8. Cool and Enjoy

• Once baked, remove the cookies from the oven and allow them to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Tips for the Best Peach Cobbler Cookies

• Use Ripe Peaches: For the best flavor, choose ripe, juicy peaches. If they’re out of season, you can substitute with frozen peaches (just thaw and drain them well).
• Adjust the Sweetness: Depending on the sweetness of your peaches, you may want to adjust the sugar in the recipe to suit your taste.
• Storage: Store these cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week. They also freeze well—simply place them in a freezer-safe container or bag.
