First Class Peach and Spice Oatmeal Cookies
By mitzzy
Spice, oatmeal, brown sugar and chunks of dried peaches. I sampled a commercial version of these on an Air Canada flight a few years ago. I rushed out of Customs as soon as I landed, dove into the BB test kitchen and replicated these amazing peach cookies. They were so good they almost made me forget my fear of flying. Here's the recipe - no passport needed. Make them small for the holidays. This is one of BB's most 'hit on' recipes of all time.
