Preheat oven to 350º F. Line baking pans with parchment paper.

In a medium sized bowl mix flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt. I an 8-quart bowl or standing mixer, beat butter on medium speed until smooth and creamy, about 1 minute. Gradually beat in both sugars; beat to combine, about 2 minutes. Add eggs, one at a time, beating after each egg. Beat in vanilla extract. Stir in flour mixture until just combined. Do not overmix. Add chocolate chips, oats, coconut and pecans and stir.

Using a tablespoon cookie-scoop, place each ball of dough 3 inches apart on the prepared baking sheets. Bake for 17 to 19 minutes, rotate baking sheets halfway through baking time, until the edges are lightly brown. Remove cookies to wire rack to cool.
