For those culinary inclined - the ANZAC biscuit.

They were invented in WW1 as something that could be sent to soldiers overseas yet keep 'fresh' on the journey.



Anzac biscuits

125 grams butter
1 tablespoon golden syrup
2 tablespoons boiling water
2 teaspoons baking soda
1 cup rolled oats
¾ cup coconut
1 cup flour
1 cup castor sugar
¼ teaspoon salt

Melt butter and stir in golden syrup, boiling water and baking soda.
Add melted butter mixture plus all other ingredients and process till combined.

Place teaspoons onto baking paper on a tray. Allow sufficient space to spread.

Bake 10 – 12 minutes 190 degrees until cooked

Optional, half dip in melted chocolate when cool.

(I'm not sure what Golden Syrup translates as in other countries...it's a light treacle made from sugar cane, a little more runny than honey. One of the Aussie or Kiwi bakers here may know )

For the ANZAC biscuits, I'll bet we could use pancake syrup (not real maple syrup). That's brown and slightly runnier than honey. I gather that castor sugar is what we call very fine granulated sugar--and in the US we measure butter by tablespoons, not grams. Very interesting!

Yes--I just googled it and found that it is what people in the states call, "Very Fine Granulated Sugar." I edited above!
