Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar together until creamy and smooth, about 2-3 minutes.
Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Then mix in the vanilla extract.
In a separate bowl, combine the flour, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt. Gradually add this dry mixture to the wet mixture, mixing just until combined.
Stir in the rolled oats, chocolate chips, raisins, walnuts, and shredded coconut (if using) until evenly distributed.
Using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, drop rounded spoonfuls 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 edges are golden brown and the centers look slightly undercooked.
Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Store leftover cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 week, or freeze for longer storage.
