Yield Makes about 27 three-inch cookies

Number Of Ingredients 14

3/4 cup all purpose flour
1/2 cup white whole wheat flour
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, room temperature
1 cup (packed) golden brown sugar
3/4 cup sugar

1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 cups old-fashioned oats
1/2 cup unsweetened flaked coconut
2 cups trail mix, coarsely chopped

Add eggs and vanilla; beat until mixture is fluffy, 1 to 2 minutes. Reduce speed to low; beat in flour mixture until just combined. Fold in oats and coconut. Stir in trail mix.
