ANZAC BISCUITS



Anzac Biscuits image

These biscuits (cookies in America) are called Anzacs because they were baked by Australian women and sent to their ANZAC soldier sons/husbands serving in Europe and Middle east during WW I. It was more like 2 months before they were received back then, so they certainly do travel well! :-) ** Please note that 1 Australian Tablespoon = 20 mls whereas in most others countries it = 15 mls.

ANZAC BISCUITS

This cookie was popularized by World War I care packages sent to soldiers of the Australia New Zealand Army Corps (ANZAC), since they could be made without eggs, and they kept well on the overseas voyage to Europe.

Categories     Food & Cooking     Dessert & Treats Recipes     Cookie Recipes

Yield Makes about 3 dozen

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 cups all-purpose flour
2 cups rolled oats
2 cups sugar
1 cup desiccated coconut
1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter
2 tablespoons Lyle's Golden Syrup
3/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 cup boiling water

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Line baking sheets with parchment paper, and set aside. In a large bowl, combine flour, oats, sugar, and coconut. Set aside.
  • In a small saucepan over medium heat, melt butter with syrup. Dissolve baking soda in boiling water, and add to butter mixture. Stir to combine. (Be careful; if the butter is hot, it will bubble up considerably.)
  • Add butter mixture to dry ingredients, and stir to combine. Using a 1 1/2-inch ice-cream scoop, drop onto prepared baking sheets, about 2 inches apart (be sure to pack the scoop tightly so the mixture doesn't crumble). Flatten cookies slightly with the heel of your hand.
  • Bake until golden brown and firm but not hard, about 15 minutes. Transfer to wire racks to cool.

Tips:

  • Use quality ingredients for the best flavor and texture.
  • Make sure your butter and sugar are at room temperature before creaming them together. This will help create a smooth and fluffy batter.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing can make the biscuits tough.
  • Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes before baking. This will help the biscuits hold their shape and rise properly.
  • Bake the biscuits in a preheated oven. This will help them cook evenly.
  • Let the biscuits cool on a wire rack before serving. This will help them stay crispy.

Conclusion:

Anzac biscuits are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that are perfect for any occasion. They are a popular snack in Australia and New Zealand, and they are also enjoyed by people all over the world. With their combination of oats, coconut, and golden syrup, Anzac biscuits are a truly unique and unforgettable cookie. So next time you're looking for a sweet treat, give Anzac biscuits a try. You won't be disappointed!
