Anzac Biscuits
Who doesn’t love an Anzac biccie?! I created this recipe for my cookbook and they have quickly become one of the most loved recipes in our house. They are a healthier twist on the much-loved ANZAC biscuits that brings all the classic vibes – without all the refined sugar.
Crunchy with a hint of chew and packed with wholesome ingredients, these biscuits are perfect for celebrating ANZAC day or to be enjoyed all year round in lunchboxes or snacks. Easy to make and seriously addictive! Hope you enjoy these as much as we do.
This recipe is from the Sweets & Snacks Chapter of Family Cooking.

INGREDIENTS:
1 cup organic wholegrain oats
3/4 cup white spelt flour
1/2 cup desiccated coconut
1/3 cup coconut sugar
2 tbsp honey
100g butter
1/2 tsp baking soda
1 1/2 tbsp boiling water
METHOD:
Preheat your oven to 160°C and line a baking tray with baking paper.
In a large bowl, combine the oats, spelt flour, desiccated coconut and coconut sugar.
Melt butter and honey together in a small saucepan over low heat. In a separate small cup, dissolve
the baking soda in the boiling water, then stir it into the melted butter mixture (it will foam slightly).
Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and mix until well combined.
Scoop a tablespoon or so of the dough and roll into small balls. Place them on the tray and flatten
slightly with your fingers or the back of a fork. Leave space between each one, as they will spread while baking.
Bake for 20-21 minutes, or until golden brown. They will firm up as they cool.
Cool on the tray for at least 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
To store:
Once completely cooled, store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 4 days, if they
last that long! Alternatively, you can freeze these for up to 2 months.
Swaps:
If you don’t have spelt flour, plain flour works well too.
