❤️WHY WE LOVE THIS RECIPE

It’s funny because I’ve served them several times to people who claim they don’t like coconut or cranberries and somehow…they love these cookies. This is a simple cookie recipe but delicious. These cookies are great for gifts during the holidays.

🍴KEY INGREDIENTS

  • Butter, softened
  • Brown sugar
  • White sugar
  • Baking soda
  • All-purpose flour
  • Cinnamon
  • Old fashioned oats
  • Craisins (dried cranberries)
  • Chopped pecans
  • Shredded coconut
  • Eggs
  • Vanilla

SWAPS

You could easily replace the pecans with any type of nuts your family enjoys or simply leave them out. You can also switch out the vanilla flavoring for maple or coconut. Could also switch out the cinnamon for nutmeg or allspice.

🍽️HOW TO MAKE

These cookies are really easy to make once you get all the ingredients out and organized.

COOKING STEPS

Step 1
Preheat oven to 350. Combine butter and sugars in a bowl and mix with mixer until creamy.

Step 2
Mix in eggs and vanilla, and beat until well combined. In a separate bowl combine flour, baking soda, and cinnamon. Add wet ingredients and mix well. Stir in oatmeal, craisins, coconut, and pecans.

Step 3
On a greased cookie sheet (or you can use parchment paper) drop rounded spoonfuls on the pan. Cook for 11-14 minutes or until edges are brown. Makes 36-48 cookies, depending on size.

⭐TIP

Cookies should look a little underdone when removed from the oven and should be light around the edges.  Cookies will continue to cook from the heat of the cookie sheet once removed. This is a mistake I have made many times letting them cook too long and it’s easy to do. 

SERVE THIS WITH

These cookies are a great addition to any dessert table and your friends and family will love them. We also love these easy Cake Mix Cranberry Cookies. They are only a few ingredients and have great reviews too.

❓FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Can I leave out the coconut?

Yes, you can leave it out. You may need to adjust the cooking time so watch them.

We use sweetened but you can use whichever you prefer.

STORING

We store these in an airtight container and they keep well. If you read the comments they also seem to freeze well too.
