Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 90 grams rolled oats
- 150 grams plain flour
- 100 grams granulated sugar
- 75 grams shredded coconut
- 125 grams unsalted butter
- 2 tablespoons golden syrup
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 2 tablespoons boiling water
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 160°C (320°F) and line two baking trays with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, plain flour, granulated sugar, and shredded coconut.
In a small saucepan over low heat, melt the unsalted butter with golden syrup, stirring occasionally until the mixture is smooth.
In a small bowl, dissolve the baking soda in boiling water, then add this solution to the butter and syrup mixture. It should froth up immediately.
Pour the frothy butter mixture into the dry ingredients and stir with a wooden spoon until thoroughly combined.
Roll tablespoons of the mixture into balls and place them onto the prepared baking trays, leaving ample space between each for spreading. Press each ball lightly with the back of a spoon to flatten slightly.
Bake the biscuits in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes or until they are golden brown. Keep an eye on them to ensure they don’t burn.
Remove the biscuits from the oven and allow them to cool on the baking trays for about 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve the Anzac biscuits with a cup of tea or coffee and enjoy!
