Ingredients
Method
Prepare the Peach Filling
- In a medium bowl, combine the diced peaches, granulated sugar, cinnamon, and lemon juice. Mix well and set aside to marinate for 10 minutes.
- After 10 minutes, drain any excess liquid from the peach mixture and set aside.
Make the Cookie Dough
- In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and brown sugar until light and fluffy.
- Add the egg and vanilla extract, mixing until fully incorporated.
- In another bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing until just combined.
Combine and Assemble
- Fold in the marinated peach filling gently into the cookie dough until evenly distributed.
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Form the Cookies
- Using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, drop balls of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving space between each cookie.
- In a small bowl, mix oats, chopped pecans, brown sugar, and cinnamon for the topping. Sprinkle this mixture over each cookie dough ball.
Bake
- Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes or until the edges are golden brown.
- Remove from the oven and allow to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes
For best results, use ripe but firm peaches. Adjust the sugar in the filling based on the sweetness of the peaches.
