Teams who get to work with me know of my tradition of trying to make Anzac Biscuits every year. Unfortunately I was travelling on this year’s one, so I ended up making some the week before to celebrate. They are really easy to make and taste soooo good.

Ingredients

• 1 cup plain flour
• 1 cup sugar
• 1 cup rolled oats
• 3/4 cup desiccated coconut
• 125g butter
• 2 tablespoons of golden syrup
• 1 teaspoon bicarbonate of soda
• 2 tablespoons of boiling water

Directions

1. Mix most of the dry ingredients together (flour, oats, sugar and coconut)
2. Melt the butter and golden syrup over a gentle heat
3. Dissolve the bicarbonate of soda in the water, stir that mixture into the butter and golden syrup mix and pour over the dry ingredients. Mix until you can’t see any more white flour.
4. Put heaped tablespoons of the mixture (allowing for spreading) onto greased or lined baking trays
5. Bake in a moderate (180C) over for about 15-20 minutes til golden
6. Remove from the oven when you’re happy with their colour, leave on the tray for a short time and then lift them off with a spatula to cool on wire racks.

The best. Enjoy!
