C was home from work yesterday so you have him to thank for cookies appearing on the blog today. Poor kid destroyed his legs jet skiing and playing volleyball over the weekend to a point where he could barely walk to the kitchen, let alone make it to work. So when I asked him if there was anything I could do, his only response was “cookies”. Actually his only response was “Louman has been pretty empty…” but unless you’re a longtime THM reader you probably wouldn’t get this reference.

Peach and Coconut Oatmeal Cookies-delicious and healthy cookies perfect for peach season! // thehealthymaven.com #glutenfreeThere are pros and cons to having him home. Pro: when at a loss for recipe inspiration, he is sure to encourage me to get my bake on. Con: He takes over my office aka the bed. Pro: I get to listen to the Game of Thrones audiobooks over the speakers with him. Con: He defaces my to-do list by adding “have a ridiculously good-looking boyfriend” to it then checks it off…okay that one made me laugh a little 😉

The best part about having him home is getting immediate feedback from the ultimate test-taster. He declared these Peach and Coconut Oatmeal Cookies to be “seriously awesome”! I’ll take it!

  1. So obsessed with peach season!! And I want to make cobbler so so so badly. All I need is more peaches and vanilla ice cream and then we’re ready to rumble.
    I wear yoga pants and a t-shirt to “work” (aka chores and errands and mom kinda stuff).

  2. I chuckled when I read about the added task to your to-do list ;). Too funny haha!

    These look amazing and I love the fruity flavors! I usually think of cookies being primarily chocolate/peanut butter, but I love how these branch out from those!

  3. I want to hang out at your house and eat stuff like this all day! 🙂 I’ve had a crazy obsession with peaches this summer so these look amazing. plus im trying the primal diet for 30 days so essentially i want one of these right now more than i can convey in words 🙂

  4. So obsessed with peach season!! And these might just be the most perfect cookie ever… peaches, oats and coconut… yes, please!

  5. I wear jeans to my day job and sometimes – like to day – I dress up. But people give me weird looks because I’m not usually that put together, so I don’t do that often haha
    When I’m blogging, I’m in my pj’s on the bed or in the kitchen. I get strange looks then too…
    Also, I’m pretty sure I’ve never had a fresh peach before. I bought one a couple weeks ago, and forgot about it- was not pretty. I shall try again, because…COOKIES!

  6. You forgot about his toe fetish though.
    I’m obsessed with peaches right now and obviously coconut still so yaaaa imma make these.

  7. since i work at a hospital and also do some management stuff, i switch in between scrubs and business casual. PJ would be a nice change every once in a while though. peaches and oatmeal together in the form of cookies sounds pretty darn good. lucky C.

  8. These cookies look fabulous! My dad has a few peach trees and hopefully, I’ll be getting some peaches this weekend, so making these cookies would be a perfect way to use some of them up. Delicious!

  9. I want some peaches! My whole life is turned upside down and I have an empty kitchen that I haven’t even gotten to use yet. Come bake with (read:FOR) me!! Promise I’ll send some pics when there’s something to show! I will tell you that I got the first order of business taken care of – my giant fork is on the wall in the dining room!
