Ingredients
  

1 cup all-purpose flour

1/2 teaspoon baking powder

1/4 teaspoon baking soda

1/4 teaspoon salt

1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened

1/2 cup brown sugar, packed

1/4 cup granulated sugar

1 large egg

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 cup peaches, peeled and diced (fresh or canned)

2 tablespoons butter, melted (for the peach layer)

1 teaspoon cinnamon

Optional: Whipped cream or vanilla ice cream for serving

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a mini muffin tin with non-stick spray or line with mini muffin liners.

    Prepare the Peach Layer: In a small bowl, mix the diced peaches with melted butter and cinnamon. Evenly distribute this mixture into the bottom of each muffin cup.

      Mix Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.

        Cream Butter and Sugars: In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes using an electric mixer.

          Add Egg and Vanilla: Beat in the egg and vanilla extract, mixing until well combined.

            Combine Mixtures: Gradually add the dry ingredient mixture to the wet mixture, stirring just until combined. Do not overmix.

              Fill the Muffin Cups: Spoon the cookie batter over the peach layer in each muffin cup, filling them about 2/3 full.

                Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes or until the edges are golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

                  Cool and Flip: Allow the cookies to cool in the pan for 5 minutes before running a knife along the edges to loosen them. Invert the muffin tin onto a wire rack to release the cookies.

                    Serve: Let them cool slightly, then enjoy warm, optionally topped with whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
