Ingredients
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 cup brown sugar
- 1 cup shredded coconut
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter
- 1/2 cup sliced almonds
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 1/4 cup golden syrup (or honey)
- 1/4 cup boiling water
Alright, now that you got your ingredients ready, let’s get cooking. Here are the steps to create your ANZAC biscuits.
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C) and line a baking tray with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, combine the rolled oats, flour, brown sugar, shredded coconut, and sliced almonds. Mix them well and set aside.
- In a saucepan, melt the unsalted butter and golden syrup together over low heat. Once melted, add the baking soda and boiling water, stirring to combine.
- Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and mix until everything is well combined. You want a nice sticky dough.
- Take spoonfuls of the mixture and roll them into balls. Place them on the prepared baking tray, making sure to leave some space in between, as they will spread while baking.
- Bake for about 10-12 minutes, or until they are golden brown. Once done, let them cool on the tray for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack.
Serve these crisp and chewy ANZAC biscuits with a nice cup of tea or your favorite drink, and you’ve got yourself a treat that’s perfect for any occasion. Enjoy every bite and spread the love!
