Add oats in 4 additions; beat on Speed 2 after each addition until well mixed. Add pecans and continue beating on Speed 1 until just blended. Add chocolate chips and next 3 ingredients; continue mixing on Speed 1 until well blended, about 20–30 seconds. Spray baking sheets with cooking spray or line with parchment paper. Drop dough by rounded tablespoons, 2 inches apart, onto baking sheet and bake until golden brown, about 10–12 minutes. Remove from baking sheet and cool on wire rack.
