Ingredients
  

Dry Ingredients

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 2 teaspoons baking soda
  • 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
  • ½ teaspoon salt

Wet Ingredients

  • 1 cup unsalted butter, at room temperature
  • ½ cup granulated sugar
  • ½ cup packed light brown sugar

  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract

  • 2 cups old-fashioned rolled oats
  • 1 ¼ cups sweetened flake coconut
  • 1 ¼ cups chopped pecans

Instructions
 

Preparation

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F.
  • In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt. Set aside.
  • In a large mixing bowl or the bowl of a stand mixer, beat butter until smooth and creamy, about 1 minute.
  • Gradually add in both granulated sugar and brown sugar, and beat until fully combined.
  • Add eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Add vanilla extract and mix until thoroughly incorporated.
  • Gradually stir in the flour mixture until just combined.
  • Stir in the chocolate chips, oats, coconut, and pecans.
  • Using a large cookie scoop, scoop out 3 tablespoons of cookie dough, roll into balls, and place on an ungreased cookie sheet or silicone baking mat.
  • Bake the cookies for 9 to 11 minutes, or until the cookies just start to turn golden brown on the edges. Do not overbake.
  • Let the cookies rest for 5 minutes on the cookie sheet before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

Do not overbake the cookies for the best chewy texture. These cookies can be stored in an airtight container for up to a week. Feel free to substitute chocolate chips with your favorite mix-ins such as dried fruits or nuts.
