Ingredients

  • 3 cups Rolled Oats
  • 1-1/2 cup Flour
  • 1/2 teaspoons Salt
  • 1/2 teaspoons Baking Powder
  • 2 sticks Unsalted Butter, At Room Temperature
  • 1 cup Brown Sugar
  • 1 cup White Sugar
  • 2 whole Eggs
  • 2 teaspoons Vanilla
  • 1/2 cups Semisweet Chocolate Chips
  • 1/2 cups Dried Cherries
  • 1/2 cups Sweetened, Flaked Coconut

Method

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F.
  • In a medium bowl, combine the oats, flour, salt, and baking powder. Set aside.
  • In a large bowl or the bowl of a stand mixer, beat the butter until softened. Add the sugars and beat until fluffy and light. Add the eggs one at a time, beating just until combined. Add the vanilla.
  • With the mixer on low or with a sturdy spoon/rubber spatula, mix in the oat mixture just until it comes together. Add in the chocolate chips, dried cherries, and coconut and mix until combined.
  • With a scoop or by hand, shape the dough into 1 1/2-inch sized balls and arrange them onto a cookie sheet, approximately 2 inches apart. Bake 18-22 minutes, until the cookies are golden at the edges. Remove from the oven and allow the cookies to cool 2 minutes on the pan, transferring to a cooling rack afterward. Serve.
