These super easy Oatmeal Coconut Cookies are easy to make and store great in the freezer. Cookies are great for every season, even summer. A chewy cookie filled with oatmeal and coconut goodness. They have a crisp edge and a chewy soft center which makes for the perfect bite every time.
These oatmeal cookies are soft and chewy. Much like my Chocolate Chip Oatmeal Cookies, they have a fantastic texture. The coconut in the cookies adds to the chewiness. I think coconut and oatmeal are a great combination and it works really well in these easy cookies.
Notes About The Oatmeal Coconut Cookies
- I usually drop my cookies from a teaspoon. You can easily make them bigger if you like, just increase the baking time by 1-2 minutes per batch.
- You could easily add chocolate chips to this recipe if you are a chocolate lover as well.
Drop cookies are the easiest cookies to make and there are a gazillion combinations that you can come up with. I usually make something different every time I make a batch. However, in this house Chocolate Chip Cookies are the favourite drop cookie.
Happy baking friends!
