Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) and line two baking trays with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, plain flour, brown sugar, and desiccated coconut. Mix well to ensure all dry ingredients are evenly distributed.
In a small bowl, dissolve the baking soda in the boiling water.
In a small saucepan over low heat, gently melt the coconut oil and golden syrup together, stirring until fully combined.
Remove the saucepan from heat and immediately stir in the baking soda mixture. The mixture will bubble up slightly.
Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and gently stir with a wooden spoon until a sticky dough forms.
Using your hands or a spoon, scoop about a tablespoon of the dough and shape it into a ball. Place the dough balls onto the prepared trays, allowing some space between each to spread during baking.
Flatten each ball slightly with the back of a spoon or your fingers.
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes or until golden brown. Watch closely as coconut oil can cause them to darken quickly.
Remove from the oven and allow the biscuits to cool on the tray for about 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Store in an airtight container for up to a week.
