Anzac Biscuits / Slice

ANZAC Dayis anannual day of remembrance to honour the members of the Australian and New Zealand Army Corps (ANZAC). It marks the anniversary of the first major military action fought by ANZAC forces in the First World War. And now it is also a day to celebrate all Australian and New Zealand personnel who serve in wars and conflicts.Lest we forget.

ANZAC biscuits originated in Australia and New Zealand after 1915 when the term ‘ANZAC’ first came to be. They are enjoyed year-round, but are traditionally eaten to commemorate ANZAC Day every year.

A variation of them, called “hardtack biscuits (which were much harder and less palatable!) were commonly sent to soldiers during the First World War.

They were a popular item to send in care packages, because they were made from basic pantry ingredients and did not contain any eggs, which were hard to come by at the time. They also stayed fresh for the long weeks it took for them to travel overseas.

And they were so hard, that one way to eat them was to grind them up and soak them in tea or water as a porridge!

A few years later, the recipe evolved to include oats, golden syrup and coconut, making the signature taste and texture that we now know and love.

With a similar consistency and nature (but a different taste) to honey. It has a rich, warm toffee-like flavour and is a common baking ingredient in Australia and New Zealand.

In this recipe, golden syrup gives the biscuits their signature butterscotch flavour and also helps to bind the biscuits, in place of eggs. And it is a key ingredient in traditional ANZAC biscuits. So, it shouldn’t be skipped if you want them to taste

If it isn’t available in your location, it can be purchased online, or you can substitute it for rice malt syrup or light corn syrup, although the biscuits won’t be quite the same. Alternatively, you can also make your own.

I am totally “Team Chewy”, all the way! There’s nothing better than a chewy oat cookie with lovely, crispy edges. For chewy ANZAC's, bake in a160-degree Celsius oven for 10-12 minutes.

If you prefer them crunchy, it’s so easy to do that without even changing the recipe! Cook for a further 3-5 minutes than the chewy recipe (a total of 12-15 minutes).Again, the biscuits will be soft straight out of the oven but will turn nice and crunchy as they cool.

With this recipe, accuracy is important. I have included weights of each ingredient, for best results. It is important to carefully weigh each ingredient, as a little extra or not enough of a certain ingredient can alter the dough and affect the final result. This recipe is made with Australian cup and spoon measurements.

ANZAC biscuits can be stored for several weeks in an airtight container at room temperature. They will soften after a few days (but are still absolutely delicious!)

To store the dough, wrap it in clingfilm and store in a bag or container in the freezer for up to 3 months. Thaw in the fridge overnight and then bake as normal. If the mixture is cold, it may need an extra minute or two in the oven.

Alternatively, freeze the baked cookies in an airtight container for up to 1 month and thaw in the fridge or at room temperature before eating.
