Ingredients

  • 1 cup unsalted butter (softened)
  • 3/4 cup brown sugar (packed)
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 1/2 cups rolled oats
  • 1 cup shredded coconut (sweetened or unsweetened)
  • 1/2 cup chopped pecans (toasted if desired)
  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
  • In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
  • Add the eggs, one at a time, and vanilla extract. Beat until smooth and well combined.
  • In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt.
  • Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing just until combined.
  • Stir in the oats, coconut, and toasted pecans.
  • Drop rounded tablespoonfuls of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
  • Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden and the center is set.
  • Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

  • For extra flavor, toast the pecans before adding them to the dough. Simply place them in a dry skillet over medium heat for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until fragrant.
  • These cookies can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week or frozen for longer storage.
  • Feel free to substitute the pecans with other nuts, such as walnuts or almonds, if preferred.
