Bowl

Saucepan

Preheat oven to 180°C/350°F (160°C fan forced)

Mix flour, oats, coconut and sugar in a bowl.

Place butter and golden syrup in a saucepan over medium high heat and stir until butter has melted.

Add baking soda and stir to combine - it will fizz up, this is normal. Immediately remove from heat.

Pour butter mixture into flour and mix until just combined.

Roll level 1 tablespoon mixture into balls, flatten into patties. Place balls, 2.5 cm/1" apart, on prepared trays.

Bake for 15 minutes, swapping trays halfway during cooking, or until deep golden. (Bake 12 min for chewy biscuits!)

Stand on trays for 5 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack to cool - they harden as they cool!
