Method
Preheat the oven to 180C/160C Fan/Gas mark 4 and line 2 large baking trays with baking parchment.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the plain flour, oats, coconut, sugar and a pinch of salt.
Melt the unsalted butter and golden syrup together in a small pan set over a low heat (or in the microwave on a low-medium setting). Remove the pan from the heat, add the bicarbonate of soda and boiling water and quickly mix to combine.
Pour the melted butter mixture into the dry ingredients and mix with a wooden spoon or rubber spatula until thoroughly combined.
Scoop tablespoons of mixture into balls and arrange on the prepared baking trays, leaving space between each biscuit. Flatten each biscuit slightly using your hand.
Bake on the middle shelf of the preheated oven for 12–13 minutes, or until almost firm and starting to crisp. The biscuits will crisp and firm more when they cool.
Remove from the oven, leave to cool on the trays for 2 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. Store in an airtight container.
