Preheat Oven to 300º. Line baking sheets with parchment paper.

Combine oats, coconut, flour salt, cinnamon, and brown sugar in a large bowl; whisk to blend.

Combine butter, maple syrup, and corn syrup in a medium saucepan. Heat over medium heat until butter melts, stirring occasionally. Remove from heat.

Combine baking soda and boiling water, stirring to dissolve. Add to maple syrup mixture, stirring well. Add maple (or vanilla) and add to dry ingredients. Add pecans and stir well.

Place 1/4 cup size balls of dough on baking sheets, 3 inches apart. Flatten slightly.
