Description

Ingredients

  • 1 c rolled oats
  • 3 c dessicated coconut
  • 1 c wholemeal plain flour
  • 2 c raw sugar
  • 2 T golden syrup (replace one spoon with molasses for laxative effect)
  • 125 g unsalted butter (preferably from a happy cow)
  • 1 t bicarbonate of soda
  • 2 T hot water
  • 1 c rolled oats
  • 3 c dessicated coconut
  • 1 c wholemeal plain flour
  • 2 c raw sugar
  • 2 T golden syrup (replace one spoon with molasses for laxative effect)
  • 125 g unsalted butter (preferably from a happy cow)
  • 1 t bicarbonate of soda
  • 2 T hot water

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 160 degrees Celcius. Mix the first four ingredients in a bowl. Put the syrup and butter in a pan over low heat and melt completely. Mix the hot water with the bicarbonate of soda, add to the sugar/fat mixture and stand back.

Now pour this into the dry ingredients and mix well. Place tablespoons of the mixture onto baking trays, and flatten each biscuit to about 2.5 - 3 inches in diameter. Bake for 8-10 minutes or until a deep brown. Take them out while they're still doughy, or by the time they crisp up they'll be charred discs. Cool on the baking trays for 5 minutes, and then cool completely on a wire rack.

Notes

Hello. We may have a problem here. I'm using Australian metric measurements. I don't have a converter handy, I'm terribly sorry, but I know American cups are slightly smaller than the ones from Oz.

Anzacs

by Peggy Hoo (not verified) - 09/14/2008 - 9:36pm

I think there's a glitch there - the list of ingredients has been listed twice - only first eight ingredients make the recipe.
Don't worry there are "converters available online - just google it: say Kilogrammes to ounces and you'll get the right amount for America.
125g is roughly about 4 ounces or slightly over. It is not all that really critical.
Though I would suggest making the anzacs a bit smaller about 2 inches at the most.
Have fun Peggy in Oz
