Anzac Biscuits

Ingredients

• 1 cup Organic Rolled Oats

• ½ cup White/Caster Sugar

• 1 cup Desiccated Coconut

• 1 cup Plain Flour

• 150g Butter

• 4 tbsp Golden Syrup

• 1 levelled tsp Bicarb Soda or Baking Soda 

• 2 tbsp Boiling Water

Method

1. Preheat the oven to 180°C / 160°C fan-forced.

2. Line 2 baking trays with baking paper. 

3. In a large bowl, mix flour, oats, coconut and sugar together. Make a well in the middle. 

4. Melt butter and golden syrup in a saucepan over the stove on high heat, and stir until melted. 

5. Add bicarb soda/baking soda to the melted butter mixture and stir to combine. The mixture will fizz. Remove from heat.

6. Pour the butter mixture into the well of the dry ingredients and stir to combine.

7. Measure roughly 1 tablespoon of mixture into balls, place on lined baking trays and gently flatten to desired shape. Place balls of mixture 2cm apart to allow for baking. Continue until all mixture is divided up into balls.

8. Bake for 15 minutes until golden, swapping trays halfway during cooking. For chewy biscuits, reduce cooking time to 12 minutes.  

9. Allow biscuits to cool slightly on trays then transfer to a wire rack to cool. Biscuits will harden as they cool.
