Ingredients

  • 1 cup rolled oats old-fashioned
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • ¼ tsp. salt
  • 1/3 cup granulated sugar
  • ¼ cup brown sugar packed
  • 1 egg large
  • 1/2 cup coconut oil melted
  • 2 tsp. vanilla extract
  • ½ cup chocolate chips semi-sweet
  • ½ cup dried cranberries
  • ½ cup coconut loosely packed, sweetened shredded

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
  2. Add the oats, flour, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt to a large bowl. Stir to combine.
  3. In a medium bowl, add the granulated sugar, brown sugar, and egg. Whisk until smooth. Add the melted (but not hot) coconut oil and vanilla. Whisk until well combined (about 1 minute).
  4. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Stir until all dry ingredients are moistened.
  5. Add the chocolate chips, dried cranberries, and shredded coconut. Stir until they are well incorporated in the cookie batter. This is a thick batter so this will take some effort.
  6. Drop large rounded tablespoons of cookie dough onto a baking sheet. Leave about 2 inches around each cookie. Use your fingers to press the cookies together if they are crumbly. Bake for 8-9 minutes. Do not over bake. Cookies will look soft but will continue to crisp as they cool.
  7. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes. Then, transfer the cookies to a cooling rack to continue cooling.
