  4. Add the flour, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, and stir to combine well.
  5. Add both kinds of oats and stir until combined.
  6. Stir in cranberries, coconut, pecans, milk chocolate chips, and white chocolate chips.
  7. Using 1 large tablespoon of dough, roll into balls and place on the prepared baking sheet about 2.5 inches apart.
  8. Bake for 10 minutes, or until the cookies are golden and no longer shiny on top.
  9. Allow cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
