I’ve fallen behind in the A to Z Challenge, now doing a desperate attempt to catch up so I’ll do a few posts tonight.
In honour of Anzac Day here’s a recipe from my Nana’s old recipe book.
Anzac Biscuits
Mix together 1 cup each of rolled oats, sugar and flour, 3/4 cup of coconut and 2 tablespoons of Sunshine milk (I think that’s powdered milk).
Melt 4 ounces butter (about 115 grams) and 1 tablespoon golden syrup. Together combine 1 1/2 teaspoons bicarb soda and 2 tablespoons boiling water. Add to butter mixture.
Stir into dry ingredients, mixing well.
Place heaped teaspoonfuls of mixture onto greased tray, allow room for spreading.
Bake in moderate oven for 20 minutes.
Anzac biscuits are lovely. (And yes, Sunshine milk is powdered milk!)
Interestingly, as a child in South Africa my mother used to bake ‘crunchies’ which were made with the same recipe!
How interesting that you had the same biscuits just with a different name!
