Ingredients

• 1 cup Unsalted butter, softened
• 0.75 cup Granulated sugar
• 0.75 cup Brown sugar, packed
• 2 pieces Large eggs
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 1.75 cups All-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon Baking soda
• 0.5 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 2.5 cups Old-fashioned rolled oats
• 1 cup Sweetened shredded coconut

Directions

Step 1

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

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar together using a hand or stand mixer until fluffy and well combined, about 2 minutes.

Step 3

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

Step 4

In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, ground cinnamon, and salt.

Step 5

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until just combined.

Step 6

Gently fold in the rolled oats and shredded coconut using a spatula or wooden spoon until evenly distributed throughout the dough.

Step 7

Use a tablespoon or cookie scoop to drop rounded spoonfuls of 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 edges are lightly golden and the centers are set.

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 5 days.
