INGREDIENTS
  

  • 1 cup butter, room temperature
  • ¼ cup brown sugar, I used dark sugar, see notes
  • ¾ cup white sugar
  • 2 large eggs, room temp
  • 1 tablespoon pure vanilla extract
  • 1 ¼ cup flour, or GF flour blended with xanthan gum
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda, GF certified if needed
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 2 ½ cups old-fashioned oats, use certified GF if needed
  • 1 cup unsweetened coconut flakes or shredded coconut, desiccated coconut
  • ½ cup pecans , chopped fine

INSTRUCTIONS
 

  • Preheat the oven: Set to 350°F and line a baking sheet with a baking mat or parchment paper.
  • Mix wet ingredients: In a large bowl, beat the butter and sugars on low until smooth and creamy (use an electric or stand mixer). Add the egg and vanilla, mixing on low until well combined.
    1 cup butter, ¼ cup brown sugar, ¾ cup white sugar, 2 large eggs, 1 tablespoon pure vanilla extract
  • Combine dry ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk the dry ingredients together. Gradually add this mixture to the wet ingredients, beating on low until just combined. Stir in the pecans and coconut.
    1 ¼ cup flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda, 1 teaspoon cinnamon, ½ teaspoon salt, 2 ½ cups old-fashioned oats, 1 cup unsweetened coconut flakes or shredded coconut, ½ cup pecans
  • Shape the dough: Form dough balls about 2 tablespoons each. Place them on the prepared baking sheet, gently pressing down and smoothing the edges. The cookies won’t spread much, so shape them as you’d like them to look.
  • Bake: Bake for about 12 minutes, adjusting the time slightly based on your oven. Enjoy!

NOTES

Sugar - Brown sugar (light or dark brown sugar) and white sugar. I used dark for a more darker and caramel flavored cookie. Coconut sugar could also be used for added coconut flavor in this oatmeal coconut cookies recipe.
