Instructions

    Preheat the oven to 350F [180C]. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.

    In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon. In a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, cream together the butter and sugars on medium speed until light and creamy, 3 minutes. Add the egg, vanilla, and orange zest, mixing briefly between additions.

    On low speed, add the flour mixture in 3 installments, stopping the mixer to scrape down the sides of the bowl in between additions. Fold in the oats, coconut, dried plums, chocolate, and cranberries.

    Drop rounded tablespoons of cookie dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing the cookies about 2 in [5 cm] apart. Bake until the edges are brown and the tops are set, 12 to 15 minutes. Repeat with remaining dough.
