Anzac biscuits
Report
These tasty eggless biscuits/cookies are an Aussie staple and so packed with flavor.
Share:
Ingredients
- 4 tablespoon unsalted butter
- ½ cup all purpose flour plain flour
- ½ cup desiccated coconut
- ½ cup oats (old fashioned/rolled oats)
- ⅓ cup sugar
- 4 teaspoon boiling water
- ½ teaspoon baking soda bicarbonate of soda
- 2 teaspoon golden syrup
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 355F/180C and prepare a large baking sheet/tray with parchment or a silicone baking mat. Melt the butter either in a small pan or in a microwavable dish (eg pyrex) for 20 seconds at a time, stir then repeat until just melted.
- Place the flour, coconut, oats and sugar in a medium-sized bowl and mix together.
- Measure the boiling water into a separate small bowl and add the baking soda. Stir to dissolve (it may not completely, and may fizz up but both fine). Add the golden syrup and stir to dissolve/mix (again may not completely). Add the melted butter and mix.
- Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix everything so evenly distributed.
- Take roughly tablespoonfuls of the mixture and roll each spoonful in your hands into a ball. Place on the lined baking sheet with a good amount of space (around 3in/7.5cm) between each biscuit and flatten the ball slightly. Repeat with the rest of the mixture.
- Bake the biscuits for approximately 10 - 15 minutes until evenly golden. I found 12 minutes gave a nice balance of crisp edges and still slightly soft which became chewy in the middle. Nearer 15 minutes will make them more evenly crisp.
Notes
- When I say "tablespoonfuls" of the mixture, I am meaning US-sized, 15ml spoons, rather than Australian 20ml spoons - if using Australian measure, I'd suggest you have a slightly under-filled spoon or alternatively make slightly less but larger.
- As you can see, this makes a relatively small batch but you can easily multiply up the quantities of everything equally to make more, as needed. Bake time will be the same.
- Video shows making a half batch of 6, but method etc is exactly the same.
