Ingredients

Servings
  • 1 cup oats quick cooking
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup white sugar
  • ¾ cup flaked coconut unsweetened
  • ½ cup butter
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 2 tablespoons water boiling
  • 1 tbsp golden syrup or substitute light corn syrup

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a large bowl, mix the oats, flour, sugar, and coconut together.
  3. In a small saucepan, use low heat to melt the syrup and butter together.
  4. In a small bowl, dissolve the baking soda in the boiling water, and then add the soda to the melted butter and syrup mixture. Stir to combine. Be careful with this step because if the butter is hot, the mixture will bubble up a lot.
  5. Pour the butter mixture into the bowl of dry ingredients and mix well.
  6. Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  7. Roll into balls and place on the lined baking sheets, leaving plenty of room for them to spread. Eight per sheet works well. Note that if your dough is too crumbly, the cookies will not flatten out, so add a tablespoon or two of water to get the non-crumbly dough needed. Also, don't wait to roll and bake these cookies as the oats will absorb more liquid, and the cookies won't flatten out if that happens.
  8. Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 10-15 minutes. They should be golden brown and firm, but not dark brown or hard.
  9. Transfer to wire racks to cool.

Notes

  • To store Anzac Biscuits (Australian Cookies), place them in an airtight container at room temperature; they stay fresh for up to two weeks. To freeze, pack them in airtight containers for up to three months.
  • Thaw at room temperature. If you prefer them warm, place the biscuits in a preheated oven at 300°F (150°C) for about 5 minutes to restore their crispiness.
