Chocolate Coconut Oatmeal Cookies

Who doesn’t love a good old oatmeal chocolate chip cookie. This one is crispy on the outside and chewy in the middle with a hit of coconut flavour. Great for snacks and satisfies a sweet tooth!

Makes 24 cookies

Dry ingredients

1 cup whole wheat flour

¾ cup quick oats

2/3 cup unsweetened, shredded coconut

1 tsp baking soda

¼ tsp salt

½ tsp cinnamon

1/3 cup mini chocolate chips

Wet ingredients

½ cup butter, softened

¼ cup brown sugar

¼ cup granulated sugar

1 egg

½ tsp vanilla

Directions:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees and grease or line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper
In a small bowl, combine dry ingredients, mix well and set aside
Using an electric mixer, cream together butter and both sugars
Add in egg and vanilla and mix at low speed until all ingredients are combined
Pour dry ingredients into wet and mix well with a spatula
Use a tablespoon to measure out cookies and place on baking sheet keeping space around each cookie
Bake for 10-12 minutes
Cookies will still be soft and look under baked when you take them out of the oven, this means they will be soft and a bit chewy in the centre

Enjoy!
