Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups old-fashioned rolled oats (200g)
  • 3/4 cup whole wheat flour (90g)
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder (4g)
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon (4g)
  • 1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt (3g)
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted and slightly cooled (113g) or melted coconut oil for dairy-free
  • 1/2 cup pure maple syrup (120ml)
  • 1 large egg, room temperature
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (5ml)
  • 1 cup fresh peaches, diced small (150g, about 1 large peach)
  • 1/2 cup pecans or walnuts, chopped (optional, 60g)
  • 1/3 cup raisins or dried cranberries (optional, 40g)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together oats, whole wheat flour, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt.
  3. In a large bowl, whisk together melted butter (or coconut oil), maple syrup, egg, and vanilla extract until smooth.
  4. Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and stir until just combined. The dough will be thick and sticky.
  5. Gently fold in diced peaches, and if using, nuts and/or raisins. If the dough seems too wet, add 1-2 extra tablespoons oats.
  6. Using a cookie scoop or heaping tablespoon, drop rounded balls of dough onto the baking sheet, spacing about 2 inches apart. Flatten each slightly.
  7. Bake for 13-15 minutes, until edges are lightly golden and centers are just set. Do not overbake.
  8. Let cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

Use ripe but not mushy peaches for best texture. If dough is too sticky, chill for 10 minutes. For gluten-free, use a 1:1 gluten-free flour blend and certified gluten-free oats. For vegan, use coconut oil and a flax egg. Do not overbake; cookies will firm up as they cool. Store in an airtight container for up to 3 days or freeze for up to 2 months.
