Coconut Nutella Oatmeal Cookie Recipe

They have the cinnamon oat taste I love. They were definitely crunchy on the outside, chewy on the inside. The Nutella gave them just the right amount of gooey chocolatey-ness, and there was just a hint of coconut to make them interesting. These is definitely my new go-to oatmeal cookie recipe!

Ingredients

  • 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1 ½ teaspoons kosher salt
  • 3 cups rolled oats
  • 1 cup butter 2 sticks at room temperature
  • ¾ cup firmly packed brown sugar
  • ¼ cup granulated sugar
  • 1 egg
  • 1 ½ teaspoons vanilla

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 375F.
  • Mix the dry ingredients, flour, baking powder, cinnamon, salt, and oats, in a large mixing bowl. Add the egg, butter, sugar, and vanilla to a second mixing bowl. Beat on high for 2-3 minutes until creamy. Mix in the dry ingredients in three batches until combined.
  • Place tablespoon sized balls onto a silpat or lightly greased baking sheet, and using your thumb or finger make indentations in each one.
  • Bake 8 to 9 minutes until they just start to brown.
  • When just out of the oven,  use a measuring spoon to give the thumbprints a little more shape.
  • Spoon Nutella into a ziplock bag. Snip a small corner of the bag, and pipe the Nutella on to the cookies. Shake the cookies a little to get the Nutella smooth.
  • Sprinkle coconut flakes
