Coconut Sugar and Coconut Flour Anzac biscuits
These Anzac biscuits combine rolled oats, shredded coconut, coconut sugar, and coconut flour for a grainy, mildly sweet cookie enriched with coconut oil and brown rice syrup. They bake to a golden texture that varies from chewy to crisp depending on the baking time. Mixing baking soda dissolved in hot water activates a slight leavening that binds the cookie together, resulting in a textured yet cohesive biscuit ideal for casual snacking.
Ingredients
- 1 cup rolled oats
- ½ cup coconut shredded
- ⅓ cup coconut sugar
- ¼ cup coconut flour
- ¼ cup coconut oil melted if solid
- ¼ cup brown rice syrup
- ½ tsp baking soda
- 2 tbsp water hot
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 325 degrees Fahrenheit (160 Celsius) and line a baking tray with baking paper.
- Combine the oats, coconut, sugar and flour in a bowl and mix well to combine. Add the melted coconut oil and brown rice syrup and mix. Place the baking soda in a small bowl and add the hot water, and stir to combine. Add to the mixture and mix until well combined.
- Form the mixture into small balls (roughly about 1-2 tsp in size). The mixture might be a little crumbly, but should come together when you squeeze it in your hands. Place on the baking tray and flatten well with the heel of your hand and repeat with the remaining mixture, allowing room for the Anzacs to spread slightly.
- Bake for 8 to 10 minutes and remove from the oven and allow to cool on the tray for 2 to 3 minutes to firm up before placing on a wire wrack to cool completely.
Notes
- For chewier biscuits, bake closer to 8 minutes; for crisper cookies, bake nearer to 10 minutes.
- Baking time may vary slightly depending on oven performance, cookie size, and how much they are flattened before baking.
