Ingredients
Scale
Dry Ingredients:
- 1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 1/2 cups oats
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
Sugars:
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 3/4 cup brown sugar
Wet Ingredients and Add-ins:
- 1 cup butter, softened
- 1 egg
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 cup diced dried peaches
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare two large cookie sheets with parchment paper.
- In a mixing bowl, cream together butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy.
- Incorporate egg and vanilla extract, mixing until well combined.
- In a separate bowl, thoroughly whisk flour, baking soda, salt, baking powder, and oats.
- Gradually blend dry ingredients into the wet mixture, stirring until just incorporated.
- Gently fold diced dried peaches into the cookie dough.
- Carefully drop small rounded dough balls onto prepared sheets, maintaining 1 to 1½ inches of spacing between cookies.
- Bake for 8-10 minutes, watching for lightly golden bottoms while keeping centers soft.
- Remove from oven and transfer cookies to a wire rack for complete cooling (approximately 30 minutes).
- Create a double boiler and melt white chocolate over medium-low heat, stirring until smooth and glossy.
- Dip one-third of each cooled cookie into melted white chocolate, allowing excess to drip off.
- Place dipped cookies on a wax paper-lined sheet and immediately sprinkle with chopped nuts.
- Allow cookies to rest for 30 minutes until chocolate sets completely.
Notes
- Customize cookie size by adjusting dough ball dimensions for thicker or thinner cookies.
- Substitute dried peaches with other dried fruits like apricots or cranberries for variety.
- Prevent over-browning by monitoring oven temperature and using light-colored baking sheets.
- Enhance white chocolate coating by adding a pinch of cinnamon or sea salt for extra flavor complexity.
