Step 1:
Preheat oven to 180°C (160°C fan, gas mark 4). Put the oats, coconut, flour and sugar into a bowl.
Step 2:
Melt the butter in a small pan and stir in the golden syrup. Mix the bicarbonate of soda to 2 tbsp boiling water, then add to the pan.
Step 3:
Make a well in the middle of the dry ingredients and pour in the butter and golden syrup mixture. Stir gently to incorporate the dry ingredients.
Step 4:
Spoon the mixture on to buttered baking sheets, about 2.5cm/1" apart to allow room for spreading. Bake in batches for 8-10 mins until golden. Transfer to a wire rack to cool.

Recipe Reviews
Thank you for sharing this recipe. I love oats & coconut! My mixture was very crumbly so I compressed the raw mixture. Still very crumbly? Not sure what I did incorrectly.
Delicious. You have to let them cool as they are still quite squishy when fresh out of the oven. But so so tasty!
First time taste lovely a little less Bicarb and will turn oven down also next time bake a tad longer oh and will dip in chocolate.
Ooohh delicious! Baked them a couple of times now. I would say spread them thinner, about 1cm, and let them cool before eating to get the texture right
Those biscuits were very delicious thanks for posting so that we can get such Amazing recipe thank you so much we really appreciate that
Walnut sized drops of mixture cooked at 160 for ten mins led to very thin, extremely spread out biscuits. They look & taste much better if you use very small tsps of mixture and cook at 150 for 12 mins. I had to experiment several times before getting them right.
