Ingredients

• 1.25 cups all-purpose flour
• 0.5 teaspoons baking soda
• 0.5 teaspoons salt
• 0.75 cups unsalted butter, softened
• 0.5 cups granulated sugar
• 0.5 cups brown sugar, packed
• 1 large egg
• 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
• 1.5 cups old-fashioned rolled oats
• 1 cup unsweetened shredded coconut

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.

Step 2

In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.

Step 3

In a large mixing bowl, use an electric mixer to cream the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.

Step 4

Add the egg and vanilla extract to the butter mixture and beat until fully combined.

Step 5

Gradually mix the dry ingredients from the medium bowl into the wet ingredients until just combined. Avoid overmixing.

Step 6

Fold in the rolled oats and shredded coconut using a spatula until evenly incorporated.

Step 7

Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of dough and roll them into balls. Place them about 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheets.

Step 8

Gently press down on each dough ball with the palm of your hand or the back of a spoon to slightly flatten them.

Step 9

Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and crisp. The centers may still look slightly soft.

Step 10

Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes. Then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 11

Store the cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days. Serve and enjoy!
