Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups old-fashioned rolled oats
  • 1 cup whole wheat flour (or all-purpose flour)
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/3 cup unsalted butter, melted (or coconut oil for dairy-free/vegan)
  • 1/2 cup pure maple syrup
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar (optional, can reduce or omit)
  • 2 large eggs (or flax eggs for vegan: 2 tbsp ground flaxseed + 5 tbsp water)
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1 cup fresh peaches, diced small (about 2 medium peaches; can use frozen or canned, well-drained and patted dry)
  • Optional add-ins:
  • 1/2 cup chopped pecans or walnuts
  • 1/4 cup mini white chocolate chips
  • 2 tablespoons chia seeds or flaxseed

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together rolled oats, flour, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, stir together melted butter, maple syrup, brown sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract until smooth.
  4. Add dry ingredients to wet ingredients and stir gently with a spatula until just combined. Do not overmix.
  5. Fold in diced peaches and any optional add-ins (nuts, chocolate chips, seeds). Pat peaches dry before adding.
  6. Scoop dough onto prepared baking sheet using a cookie scoop or heaping tablespoon, spacing about 2 inches apart.
  7. Gently flatten each cookie to about 1/2 inch thick with fingers or the back of a spoon.
  8. Bake for 13-16 minutes, until edges are golden and centers are just set.
  9. Cool cookies on baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
  10. Enjoy warm or store in an airtight container for grab-and-go breakfasts.

Notes

Use ripe but firm peaches for best texture. Pat peaches dry to avoid soggy cookies. For gluten-free, use a GF flour blend and certified GF oats. For vegan, use flax eggs and coconut oil. Do not overmix dough. Cookies freeze well and can be batch baked for meal prep. Flatten cookies before baking as they do not spread much.
