Ingredients
For the Cookies:

- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar

- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup fresh or canned peaches, finely chopped (drained if using canned)
For the Topping:
- 1/2 cup gluten-free oats
- 1/4 cup brown sugar, packed
- 1/4 cup gluten-free all-purpose flour
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
Instructions
Preparing the Cookies:
- Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Mix Dry Ingredients: In a medium bowl, whisk together the gluten-free flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
- Cream Butter and Sugars: In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened butter with granulated sugar and brown sugar until creamy and well combined.
- Add Wet Ingredients: Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until the mixture is smooth.
- Combine: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing until just combined. Gently fold in the chopped peaches.
Preparing the Topping:
- Combine Topping Ingredients: In a small bowl, mix together the gluten-free oats, brown sugar, gluten-free flour, and ground cinnamon. Pour in the melted butter and stir until the mixture is crumbly.
Assembling the Cookies:
- Scoop Dough: Using a cookie scoop or spoon, drop tablespoon-sized balls of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
- Add Topping: Sprinkle a generous amount of the oat topping over each cookie, gently pressing it into the dough to adhere.
- Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the cookies are set.
- Cool: Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Enjoy!
These gluten-free peach cobbler cookies are best enjoyed fresh but can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to three days. Enjoy the taste of summer in every bite!
