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.

Tips:

  • Use quality ingredients: The better the ingredients, the better the biscuits will be. Use fresh, ripe apricots, good quality butter, and flour.
  • Don't overmix the dough: Overmixing will make the biscuits tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Chill the dough before baking: Chilling the dough will help the biscuits hold their shape and rise better in the oven.
  • Bake the biscuits in a hot oven: A hot oven will help the biscuits rise quickly and evenly.
  • Don't overbake the biscuits: Overbaking will make the biscuits dry and crumbly. Bake just until the tops are golden brown.
