How to Make It
Note:This is an overview. See recipe card below for ingredient quantities and full instructions.
1. Prep Your Ingredients Make sure your butter is softened (but not melted!) and your peaches are finely diced—this ensures even distribution in every bite. If using canned peaches, pat them dry to avoid soggy cookies.
2. Cream Butter & Sugars Beat the butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy. This step adds air for a tender cookie, so don’t rush it! Scrape the bowl halfway through to ensure everything’s fully combined.
3. Add Eggs & Vanilla Mix in the eggs one at a time, followed by the vanilla. The batter should look smooth and slightly glossy. If it curdles, just keep beating—it’ll come together!
4. Dry Ingredients Whisk the flour, cinnamon, baking soda, and salt, then gradually add to the wet ingredients. Mix just until no flour streaks remain—overmixing = tough cookies!
5. Fold in Oats & Peaches Gently stir in the oats and diced peaches. The dough will be thick and sticky, but that’s perfect for soft, hearty cookies.
6. Scoop & Bake Drop dough onto parchment-lined sheets (a cookie scoop keeps them uniform). Bake until the edges are golden but centers are still slightly soft—they’ll firm up as they cool.
7. Cool & Enjoy! Let cookies rest on the tray for 5 minutes before transferring to a rack. They’re delicious warm, but the peach flavor deepens as they cool.
Pro Tips
Use frozen peaches in a pinch—thaw, dice, and pat very dry.
Toast the oats for 5 minutes in a dry skillet for extra nuttiness.
Underbake slightly (by 1–2 minutes) for ultra-chewy cookies.
Dust with cinnamon sugar post-bake for a sparkly finish.
Storage
Room temp: Store in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
Freeze: Layer unbaked dough balls or cooled cookies between parchment; freeze for up to 3 months. Bake frozen dough +1–2 minutes.
Bake 10–12 mins until edges are golden. Cool 5 mins on tray before transferring.
