1 1/2 cups walnut halves, roughly chopped
1 cup sweetened shredded coconut flakes
1 cup golden raisins
1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg

1/2 cup granulated sugar
2 large eggs
2 tablespoons whole milk
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract

1
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Spread the walnuts on a rimmed baking sheet and toast, stirring occasionally, until golden and fragrant, about 8 minutes.

Spread the coconut on another rimmed baking sheet and toast, stirring occasionally, until golden brown, about 5 minutes.

Let the nuts and coconut cool.
4
Cover the raisins with hot water in a small bowl; set aside.
5
Meanwhile, whisk the flour, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg and salt together in a small bowl.
6
Add the butter, brown sugar and granulated sugar to the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment (or a large bowl if using a hand mixer) and beat on medium speed until creamy.
7
Beat in the eggs, one at a time, until incorporated.
8
Beat in the milk and vanilla until blended.
9
Reduce the speed to low and gradually beat in the flour mixture.
10
Beat in the oats, raisins, walnuts and coconut.
11
Drop the dough by rounded tablespoons onto ungreased baking sheets.
12
Bake until golden brown, about 12 minutes, switching the positions of the baking sheets halfway through.
13
Cool the cookies on the sheets on wire racks for 1 minute, then transfer to the racks to cool completely.

Tips for the best results

Read through all the steps once before you start and measure out your ingredients first — it makes everything go more smoothly.
Preheat the oven fully and bake on the middle rack for the most even results.
Check for doneness a few minutes early — a toothpick in the center should come out with just a few moist crumbs.
Let it cool before slicing so it sets properly and holds its shape.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge and enjoy within a few days.

Variations & substitutions

Use a neutral oil or a plant-based spread in place of butter for a dairy-free version.
Brown sugar instead of white sugar adds a deeper, more caramel-like flavor.
Leave out the nuts to make it nut-free, or swap in seeds for a similar crunch.
A good 1:1 gluten-free flour blend works well if you need a gluten-free version.
