By sherree

Ingredients

• 2 and 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 1 and 1/2 teaspoons cinnamon
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1 cup coconut oil (measured solid), melted and slightly cooled
• 1 cup granulated sugar
• 1 cup brown sugar
• 2 large eggs
• pinch of vanilla powder (or 2 teaspoons vanilla extract)
• 1 cup quick oats

Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper, and set aside.

In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt. Set aside.

In another large bowl, using an electric hand mixer, beat together coconut oil, sugars, eggs, and vanilla until fluffy and well-blended. Gradually pour in dry ingredients, mixing after each addition until combined. Stir in quick oats.

Roll dough into tablespoon-sized balls and place on prepared baking sheets. Bake for 10 minutes, or until edges turn light golden brown. Remove from oven and let cookies rest on baking sheet for 2 minutes, before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
