1–1/4 cup all-purpose flour
1 cup oats, ground using a food processor or blender
1 tsp. baking soda

2 large eggs, at room temperature
1 tsp. vanilla
1 tsp. lemon extract
1–1/2 cup shredded sweetened coconut

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Line two to three baking sheets with parchment paper. Set aside.
In a small bowl, sift ground oats, all-purpose flour, baking soda and salt together. Set aside.
In a large bowl, using a stand-mixer or hand-held mixer, cream unsalted butter and brown sugar until fluffy. Beat in eggs, vanilla, and lemon extract. Beat in flour mixture until just incorporated. Stir in coconut, white chocolate chips and nuts.
Using a #24 ice cream scoop (3 tbsp.) or 1/4 cup measuring cup, drop dough onto prepared baking sheets, about 2 inches apart. Chill for about 1 hour.*
