For those of you that don’t know its Anzac Day for NZ and Australia on April 25th.

These biscuits have long been associated with the Australian and NZ Army Corps going back as far as World War 1. It has been claimed that the biscuits were sent by wives, women’s groups to the soldiers abroad as they kept well during naval transport and the ingredients don’t spoil.

 

So what your going to need here is:

125 grms unsalted butter

1 cup rolled oats

1 cup plain flour

1 cup brown sugar

1/2 cup coconut

2 Tbsp golden syrup

1 Tbsp water

1/2 tsp baking soda

 

Preheat your oven to 170-175’c.

Combined the oats, sifted flour, sugar, coconut in a large bowl.

Combine butter, golden syrup and the water in a saucepan, stir over medium heat until butter melts.

Stir in the baking soda, stir this mix into the dry ingredients.

Once all mixed together place Tbsp lots rolled into balls onto a greased baking tray and flatten with a fork, bake until golden brown roughly 10-15mins depends on your oven.

 

Lest we forget.

 

Happy Baking

with love
