Ingredients
Instructions 1) Preheat oven to 350. 2) Beat shortening and sugar at medium speed of a mixer until light and fluffy (about three minutes). Add syrup, vanilla, and eggs, beating well. 3) Lightly spoon flour into a dry measuring cup; level with a knife. Combine flour, oats, coconut, baking powder and salt. Add flour mixture to sugar mixture; stir just until blended. 4) Pour batter into a 13 x 9 inch baking pan coated with cooking spray. Bake at 350 for 35 minutes or until a wooden pick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool in pan on a wire rack. 5) Story: Annie made these when she felt like baking but not like grocery shopping.
