Clear-The-Cupboard Coconut, Oatmeal, Pecan Cookies image

This snappy little oatmeal cookie loaded with coconut and pecans is from Southern Living magazine. I make them with a 2 tablespoon cookie scoop for uniformity and end up with perfectly crispy/chewy cookies that bake evenly from the center to the edge.

These cookies are a great make-ahead snack. I made a batch on Sunday and they were still fresh and delicious on Wednesday.

I found that these cookies spread out a lot in the oven. I would recommend using a smaller cookie sheet or baking them at a lower temperature.

These cookies are a bit too sweet for my taste. I would reduce the amount of sugar by half next time.

I'm not a huge fan of coconut, but I really liked these cookies. The coconut flavor is subtle and it doesn't overpower the other flavors.

These cookies are a great way to use up leftover oatmeal. I usually make a big batch of oatmeal on the weekends and then use the leftovers to make these cookies during the week.

I love that these cookies use up pantry staples. I always have coconut, oatmeal, and pecans on hand, so I can make these cookies anytime.
