Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1 cup packed brown sugar
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 1/2 cups old-fashioned rolled oats
- 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1 cup shredded sweetened coconut
- 3/4 cup chopped walnuts or pecans
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9-inch round cake pan or line with parchment paper.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt.
- In a large bowl, cream butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy, about 2–3 minutes.
- Add eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in vanilla extract.
- Gradually mix dry ingredients into the wet mixture until just combined.
- Fold in oats, chocolate chips, shredded coconut, and chopped nuts until evenly distributed.
- Press dough evenly into prepared pan and smooth the top.
- Bake for 25–30 minutes until edges are golden and center is set but slightly soft.
- Cool completely in the pan before slicing and serving.
Notes
- Avoid overbaking to maintain a soft, chewy center.
- Quick oats can be used, but rolled oats provide better texture.
- Refrigerate dough up to 24 hours before baking if desired.
- Omit nuts for a nut-free version and add extra chocolate chips or oats.
- Decorate with frosting once fully cooled for special occasions.
