Ingredients

• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
• 1 cup granulated sugar
• 1 cup packed light brown sugar
• 2 pieces large eggs
• 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
• 2 cups old-fashioned rolled oats
• 1 cup sweetened shredded coconut
• 1.5 cups semisweet chocolate chips
• 1 cup chopped pecans

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 mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt. Set aside.

Step 3

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

Step 4

Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.

Step 5

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing just until combined. Do not overmix.

Step 6

Fold in the rolled oats, shredded coconut, chocolate chips, and chopped pecans until evenly distributed in the dough.

Step 7

Using a medium-sized cookie scoop or tablespoon, drop rounded dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.

Step 8

Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the cookies are golden around the edges but still slightly soft in the center.

Step 9

Remove the baking sheets from the oven and allow the cookies to cool on the sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 10

Store the cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week, or freeze for longer storage.
