ANZAC Biscuits
ANZAC Biscuits have long been an Australian tradition. Baked by the wives and sweethearts of the Australia New Zealand Army Corps (ANZACs) fighting abroad in Gallipolli during World War I, ANZAC biscuits were able to survive the long sea voyage as they contained no milk or eggs. Made with rolled oats, butter, Golden Syrup and desiccated coconut, these "cookies" have a unique flavor, due to the Golden Syrup. Make sure you use butter and not butter substitute, both for the consistency and the flavor. (You can get your Golden Syrup from the Australian Pie Company store in Burien!)
Ingredients:
1 cup rolled oats
1 cup plain flour
1/2 cup sugar
3/4 cup unsweetened dessicated coconut
1/2 cup butter
2 T Golden Syrup
1/2 tpn bicarbonate of soda
1 T boiling water
Pinch salt
Preparation:
1. Mix oats, flour, sugar and coconut together.
2. Melt syrup and butter together.
3. Mix soda with boiling water and add to melted butter and syrup.
4. Add to dry ingredients.
5. Place tablespoonsful of mixture on greased slide.
6. Bake in slow oven, 150-160 degrees C (310-320 degrees F) for 20 minutes.
