Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, salt, and ground cinnamon until well combined.
Stir the rolled oats into the dry mixture and set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the brown sugar, granulated sugar, unsweetened applesauce, melted coconut oil, and vanilla extract. Mix until smooth and creamy.
Gradually add the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients, mixing just until combined. Do not overmix.
Fold in the dried cranberries, raisins, and chopped dried apricots to evenly distribute them throughout the dough.
Using a tablespoon or cookie scoop, drop rounded scoops of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10–12 minutes, or until the cookies are golden around the edges but still soft in the center.
Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Store the cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days. Enjoy!
