Preparation
Step 1
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Step 2
In large bowl whisk together flour, oats, baking soda, and salt; set aside.
Step 3
In a large bowl, mix together melted coconut oil and brown sugar until smooth. Add in egg, egg yolk, and vanilla; mix again until smooth and well combined.
Step 4
Add in flour and oat mixture to the wet ingredients; mixing until well combined. Fold in shredded coconut and chocolate chunks. Let dough sit for 5 minutes before baking.
Step 5
Drop dough with cookie scoop or by large rounded tablespoons onto prepared cookie sheet. Bake 9-12 minutes or until edges just begin to turn a golden brown. Do not over bake; we don't want crispy cookies! Remove from oven and let cool for 5 minutes on baking sheet, then transfer to wire rack to finish cooling. Sprinkle with sea salt if desired. Makes about 20 cookies.
