Anzac biscuits

Whether you like them chewy or crisp, homemade Anzac biscuits are an Aussie classic! Often made in time for Anzac Day (25 April), these popular treats make great lunchbox fillers.

• 1 cup plain flour
• 1 cup brown sugar
• 1/2 cup coconut
• 125g butter
• 2 tabs golden syrup
• 1/2 tsp bicarb soda
• 1 tabs water

Method:

1. Sift the flour and sugar into a bowl. Add the rolled oats and coconut.
2. Melt the butter in a saucepan and stir in the golden syrup and water.
3. Stir the bicarb soda into the liquid mixture.
4. Add the liquid to the dry ingredients and mix thoroughly.
5. Roll small balls of mixture and place on a greased tray.
6. Bake at 175C for 15-20 minutes. The longer they are cooked, the less chewy they will be.
