Anzac Biscuits
Ingredients
1 cup rolled oats
1 cup plain flour (sifted)
1 cup white sugar (1/2 cup white sugar & 1/2 cup brown sugar will give a good snap if that is desired)
3/4 cup desiccated coconut
125g butter (melted)
2 tablespoons golden syrup
1/2 teaspoon bicarbonate of soda
1 tablespoon boiling water
Method
Pre-heat oven to 160 degrees Celsius and line tray with baking paper.
In a bowl mix together the dry ingredients - rolled oats, flour, sugar, and coconut.
Into a saucepan, place the butter, golden syrup, and water, and heat until butter is melted. Add bicarbonate of soda and stir until foaming.
Add the liquid ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix thoroughly.
Roll tablespoon sized balls (32g if you want to be specific) in your hands or use a small ice-cream scoop and place on lined baking trays (flatten the balls slightly). *Ensure there is space between the flattened balls, as the mixture will spread.
Bake for approx. 12-15 minutes until light golden (will depend on your oven). Allow to cool on tray.
