✨ Inspired by @hannahharvestinghealthh
✅ Ingredients:
-
1 ½ cups rolled oats
-
¾ cup all-purpose flour (use gluten-free like @bobsredmill 1:1 if needed)
-
½ cup granulated sugar (coconut sugar works great!)
-
½ tsp baking powder
-
¾ cup diced fresh peaches
-
¼ cup milk (any plant-based milk – almond works well)
-
⅓ cup oil or melted butter (coconut oil adds a lovely touch)
-
1 egg
Optional Icing:
-
Powdered sugar + a few drops of water until drizzle consistency
Instructions:
-
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
-
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the milk, oil, and egg.
-
Add in the rolled oats, flour, sugar, and baking powder – stir until well combined.
-
Gently fold in the diced peaches.
-
Use a cookie scoop to portion out 12 cookies. Slightly flatten each with the back of a spoon.
-
Bake for 15 minutes, or until lightly golden.
-
(Optional) Once cooled, drizzle with a simple icing made from powdered sugar and water.
Pro Tips:
-
Use fresh, ripe peaches for best flavor. Canned peaches (well-drained) also work in a pinch.
-
Let cookies cool before icing to avoid melting.
-
Store in the fridge for up to 4 days in an airtight container.
