Ingredients
Scale
- 1 ¾ cups all-purpose flour
- ½ teaspoon baking powder
- ¼ teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon cornstarch
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- ½ cup unsalted butter, softened
- ½ cup brown sugar, packed
- ¼ cup granulated sugar
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- ¾ cup diced fresh peaches (ripe but firm)
Instructions
- Prepare the Peaches – Wash, peel, and dice the peaches into small chunks. Pat them dry with a paper towel to remove excess moisture.
- Mix Dry Ingredients – In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, cornstarch, salt, and cinnamon.
- Cream Butter and Sugars – In a large mixing bowl, beat the butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
- Add Wet Ingredients – Mix in the egg and vanilla extract until well combined.
- Combine Dry and Wet Mixtures – Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until just combined.
- Fold in Peaches – Gently mix in the diced peaches, making sure they are evenly distributed.
- Chill the Dough – Cover and refrigerate the dough for 30-45 minutes. This helps prevent the cookies from spreading too much.
- Preheat the Oven – Set the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Scoop and Bake – Drop tablespoon-sized portions of dough onto the baking sheet, leaving 2 inches between cookies. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until edges are golden.
- Cool and Serve – Let cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack. Enjoy warm or store for later!
Notes
- Use fresh peaches for the best flavor, but canned or frozen (thawed and dried) can work as substitutes.
- For extra crunch, add ¼ cup of chopped pecans or walnuts to the dough.
- To store, keep cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or freeze for up to 3 months.
- Pair with vanilla ice cream for a delicious peach cobbler-inspired dessert!
