  4. Beat in eggs until thoroughly incorporated.
  5. Stir in rolled oats, chopped apples, and 1 ½ cups of flaked coconut.
  6. Gradually add flour, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
  7. Pour batter into the prepared baking pan and spread evenly with a rubber spatula.
  8. Sprinkle the remaining ½ cup of coconut evenly over the top.
  9. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with moist crumbs.
