Instructions
1-Preheat the Oven: Preheat the oven to 375ยฐF with a rack in the middle. The dough does not need chilling, so start mixing right away.
2-Mix the Dry Ingredients: Whisk together flour, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt in a medium bowl. Set aside.
3-Make Brown Butter: Melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat, swirling until milk solids turn deep golden brown and smell nutty. Immediately pour into a large heatproof bowl; do not burn.
4-Make the Dough: To the warm browned butter, add both sugars and vegetable oil; whisk until smooth. Add egg, egg yolk, and vanilla, whisk again, then fold in flour mixture until just combined. The dough will be thick and golden.
5-Stir in Oats and Mix-ins: Fold in old fashioned oats, shredded coconut, chocolate chips, and chopped pecans with a sturdy spatula. The dough will be very thick.
6-Portion the Dough: Scoop dough into 3-tablespoon portions (2 ounces each). Roll into balls, place 2 inches apart on a parchment-lined baking sheet, then flatten each ball to about 2.5 inches wide and ยฝ inch thick.
7-Bake the Cookies: Bake one tray at a time on the middle rack at 375ยฐF for 8 to 10 minutes, rotating halfway. Edges should be set and lightly browned, centers soft. Do not overbake.
8-Cool the Cookies: Let cookies rest on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

๐ฅ Browning the butter is essential โ it adds deep toffee and butterscotch notes without any extra sugar.
๐ฅ Always use old fashioned rolled oats; quick oats absorb too much moisture and make the cookies dry and crumbly.
โ๏ธ Freeze shaped dough balls on a baking sheet until solid, then store in a freezer bag for fresh-baked cookies anytime.
