These chewy oatmeal cookies are soft and full of so much great texture. They have flavours of oatmeal, brown sugar, and sweet peaches in every bite. It's the perfect cookie after dinner, on-the-go, or for back to school snacks.

Instructions
Preheat the oven to 350℉. Line a baking tray with parchment paper and set aside. Dice the peaches into small pieces, the size of chocolate chips for reference. You want them small or else they'll impact the spread of the cookie.
2 medium-sized peaches
In a medium-sized bowl, add in flour, baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt. Mix together and set aside.
In a large bowl, beat together the softened butter, brown sugar, and white sugar. Mix for 2-3 minutes or until soft and fluffy. Scrape down the bowl as necessary.
1/2 cup butter, 1/2 cup dark brown sugar, 1/2 cup white sugar
Add in maple syrup, egg, and vanilla. Continue mixing for another 2-3 minutes.
1 egg, 1 tbsp vanilla, 1 tbsp maple syrup
Add in the dry ingredients, as well as the quick oats and large flake oats. Mix together.
1 cup quick oats*, 1/2 cup large flake oats
Mix in the peaches. Don't over-mix!
Scoop 6 cookies at a time onto the baking tray, spacing them 2-3 inches apart from one another. Gently press the cookie dough balls down to create an oval. This will help them spread better in the oven.
Bake for 15-18 minutes or until the middle of the cookies are set. Enjoy!
Notes
*You can use JUST 1 1/2 cups of quick oats if you'd like, but I think that using a mix of both large flake and quick oats adds a super oat texture.
