Preheat oven to 180°C (350°F).

In a large bowl, combine rolled oats, coconut, flour, and sugar.

Mix the dry ingredients well.

In a separate saucepan, melt butter and golden syrup/honey over low heat.

In a small bowl, add bicarbonate of soda to the boiling water.

Pour the bicarbonate of soda mixture into the melted butter mixture.

Pour the wet ingredients over the dry ingredients.

Mix until a firm and moist consistency is achieved.

Drop teaspoonfuls of the mixture onto a cold, greased baking tray or one lined with baking paper.

Bake for 15 minutes, or until golden brown.

Cool on a wire rack before serving.
