Oatmeal Coconut Squares with Chocolate Chips Recipe

  • 1 cup old-fashioned rolled oats
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup packed dark brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup chocolate chips (milk or semisweet)
  • 1/2 cup sweetened flaked coconut
  • 1/4 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 5 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted and cooled
  • 1 large egg
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla
  1. Preheat oven to 350°F.
  2. Line a 9-inch square metal baking pan with a 12- to 14-inch-long sheet of foil, letting excess hang over sides, and butter foil in pan.
  3. Toss together oats, flour, brown sugar, chips, coconut, baking powder, and salt in a large bowl. Beat together butter, egg, and vanilla with a fork in another bowl, then stir into oat mixture until incorporated. Spoon batter into baking pan, patting evenly.
