Equipment

Ingredients

1 cup unsalted butter, softened
¾ cup brown sugar, packed (can use organic dark brown sugar if preferred)
⅓ cup granulated sugar (can use organic cane sugar if preferred)
2 eggs
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
1 ¼ cups all purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
½ teaspoon salt
2 ½ cups uncooked old-fashioned oats
1 cup finely chopped pecans
1 cup sweetened coconut flakes (can use unsweetened shredded coconut if preferred)

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350º F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Alternatively, you can grease the baking sheet with a little butter if preferred.
Use a spoon or an electric hand mixer to beat together butter, brown sugar, granulated or cane sugar, eggs and vanilla in a large mixing bowl until well combined.
In another bowl, combine flour, baking soda, cinnamon and salt.
Stir flour mixture into butter mixture, being sure not to overmix.
Fold in oats, pecans and coconut.
Use a cookie scoop (I used a slightly overfilled #40 disher) to scoop out dough. Roll the dough into balls and place the dough balls onto the baking sheet. Alternatively, you can scoop out with your hands and roll into balls that are between 1 ¼" and 1 ½" in diameter. If you find the dough is a bit sticky to work with, refrigerate the dough for about 30 minutes before scooping.
Bake for 10-14 minutes until the edges of the cookies are golden brown.

Notes

Recipe yields 36 cookies when using a slightly overfilled #40 disher. If using a different size or your hands, the yield will be lower or higher.
