Anything is possible when you’re baking with Betty, so take your favorite oatmeal and crisp rice cereal and give a breakfast staple a sweet cookie change up. These oatmeal coconut pecan cookies are packed with flavor and a delightfully light and crispy crunch! They are thin but not too thin, slightly soft in the center with crispy edges and their texture is perfect for dipping into a glass of cold milk. This recipe is simple to make with no rolling or shaping required, just make sure to measure each of your ingredients carefully. We suggest doubling the recipe since we haven’t met anyone that only eats one of these light and flavor-filled oatmeal coconut cookies.
