Instructions

Preheat oven to 325°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, combine oats, whole wheat flour, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt.
In another bowl, whisk melted coconut oil or butter, egg, almond extract, maple syrup, and almond milk.
Pour wet ingredients into dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined.
Carefully fold in diced peaches, avoiding breaking them up.
Chill the dough in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.
Scoop 15 equal portions onto prepared baking sheet and flatten slightly with a spatula.
Bake for 9–12 minutes until edges are set but centers remain soft.
Allow cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.

Notes

Dice peaches small to avoid soggy centers. Chilling dough prevents spreading and ensures chewy texture. Use canned or frozen peaches drained well if fresh are unavailable. These cookies store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to one week and freeze well. Customize by adding chia seeds, flaxseed, or chopped nuts. Use gluten-free oats and flour for gluten-free version.
