Deliciously Indulgent Peach Cookies to Satisfy Your Cravings!
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup diced fresh peaches (about 2 medium peaches)
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/2 cup chopped pecans or walnuts (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a separate bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt, stirring them together thoroughly.
- In a mixing bowl, beat the softened butter and sugar until the mixture is creamy and light, about 3-4 minutes.
- Incorporate the egg and vanilla extract, mixing until well blended.
- Slowly introduce the dry ingredients into the wet mixture, stirring gently until just combined.
- Fold in the diced peaches, cinnamon, and nuts if using, ensuring they are evenly mixed throughout the dough.
- Drop dollops of the cookie dough onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving about 2 inches of space between each.
- Bake in the oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the cookies are golden around the edges.
- Let the cookies rest on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before moving them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
- For an extra burst of peach flavor, mix in 1/2 cup of peach preserves into the dough.
- Feel free to swap out the peaches for other fruits like blueberries or cherries for a delightful variation.
