Ingredients

1 cups all purpose flour
0.75 teaspoons baking soda
0.5 teaspoons kosher salt
0.5 teaspoons allspice
0.5 teaspoons cinnamon
0.75 cups butter
0.5 cups granulated sugar
0.75 cups light brown sugar
2 units eggs
1 teaspoons vanilla extract
2.75 cups rolled oats
0.75 cups coconut flakes
0.75 cups dried apricots

Steps:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, salt, allspice, and cinnamon.
In another large bowl, combine the butter and granulated sugar and, with a hand-held electric mixer, mix on low speed until just incorporated. Raise the speed to high and mix until light and fluffy.
Add the brown sugar and mix until incorporated. Add the eggs to the butter mixture, one at time, waiting for the first one to be fully mixed in before adding the last. Put in the vanilla. Reduce the mixer's speed to low. Add the flour mixture, little by little, until a smooth dough is formed (make sure to scrape down the sides of the bowl).
Turn off the mixer, stir in the oats, coconut flakes, and apricots with a rubber spatula. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper. Use a spoon to drop heaping tablespoons of the dough onto the sheets, space them with enough room to expand.
Bake the cookies in batches for about 12-15 minutes; make sure to turn the pan once so they bake evenly. Bake until golden brown but still spongy. Cool on pans for a couple of minutes before moving them to a rack to cool completely. Store in an airtight container.
