  3. Add 2 eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition, then stir in 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 ½ cups of all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon of baking soda, ½ teaspoon of ground cinnamon, and a pinch of salt.
  5. Gradually mix dry ingredients into the wet mixture until just combined.
  6. Gently fold in 2 cups of old-fashioned oats, 1 cup of chopped pecans, and 1 cup of sweetened coconut flakes.
