Method 7 steps
Combine the flour (sifted), oats, coconut and sugar in a bowl.
Melt the butter and golden syrup in a saucepan over a low heat.
Mix the bicarbonate of soda with the water, and add to the butter and golden syrup.
Pour the liquids into the dry ingredients and mix well.
Spoon dollops of mixture about the size of a walnut shell onto a greased baking sheet, leaving as much space again between dollops to allow for spreading.
Bake in a moderate oven (180°C / 350°F) for 15–20 minutes.
Cool on a wire rack and seal in airtight containers.
