Anzac biscuits -mmmmmm

This is another of mine and the kids favourite cookie recipes, so easy to make and very moreish. They also freeze well when cooked so you can make them in bulk. And, I have discovered I can make them in my thermomix, which I have to admit feels like the height of laziness, seeing as how they're super easy to make in the beginning.

Thermomix - Now you're Cooking!


As usual, I digress. Here's the recipe made the regular, stovetop way.


Anzac biscuits

1 cup rolled oats
1 cup plain flour
2/3 cup sugar/rapadura
3/4 cup dessicated coconut
2 tablespoons golden syrup
125grams butter
1 teaspoon baking (bicarb) soda
2 tablespoons hot water

• Preheat your oven to 160c (320f)
• Place golden syrup and butter in largish saucepan over low heat and melt.
• Dissolve baking soda in the hot water and add to the butter mixture.
• Add all dry ingredients and mix well.
• Place tablespoons of mixture onto greased baking trays and flatten slightly. Leave a little room for spreading.
• Bake for about 8-10 minutes until golden brown.
• Cool on tray for 10 minutes then transfer to baking rack to cool completely.

Now hide them away before the kids and hubby see them!
