Method
Preparation
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a large mixing bowl, cream the softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar together until light and fluffy, about 3-4 minutes.
- Mix in the eggs one at a time, ensuring each is fully incorporated before adding the next. Add the vanilla extract and stir.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg.
- Gradually add the dry mixture to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
- Gently fold in the diced peaches and nuts (if using).
- Using a cookie scoop or spoon, drop balls of dough onto a parchment-lined baking sheet about 2 inches apart.
Baking
- Bake for 10-12 minutes or until the edges are golden.
- Let them cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
Chill the dough for 30 minutes if it's too sticky to scoop. These cookies can last up to a week in an airtight container.
