How to Make Oatmeal Coconut Cookies

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) softened unsalted butter and ¾ cup granulated sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in 1 large egg and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda, ½ teaspoon salt, and 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon.
  4. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Stir in 2 cups rolled oats and 1 cup shredded sweetened coconut.
  5. Roll the dough into 1-inch balls. Place them 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheets and flatten slightly with a fork.
  6. Bake for 10-15 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown. Keep a close eye to prevent over-baking.
  7. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
