"The unmistakable sweet, oaty goodness of a classic Anzac biscuit is always a treat in itself, and I just love dunking them in a cup of tea (pro tip: if you like to do this too, bake your biscuits for an extra 5 minutes so they’re extra crunchy). Here, I’ve used the Country Women’s Association of Victoria’s original recipe. So bake up a batch and see if you can resist eating them all." – Lucy Nunes

125g salted butter, chopped
2 tbs golden syrup
1 cup (220g) caster sugar
1 cup (150g) plain flour
1 cup (90g) Woolworths Australian Rolled Oats
¾ cup (60g) desiccated coconut
½ tsp bicarb soda
2 tbs boiling water

Method

1.

Preheat oven to 180°C/160°C fan-forced. Line 2 baking trays with baking paper.
2.

Place butter and golden syrup in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Cook, stirring occasionally, until butter melts.
3.

Meanwhile, place sugar, flour, oats and coconut in a large bowl and mix to combine. Mix bicarb and boiling water in a small bowl, then stir through butter mixture. Add dry ingredients and stir until well combined.
4.

Roll level 1 tbs measures into balls and place on prepared trays, leaving a 4cm gap between each. Slightly flatten each ball. Bake for 15 minutes. Rotate trays and bake for another 3 minutes, or until golden. Cool on trays.
