Tomorrow we'll observe ANZAC day here, and every year I make anzac biscuits for the kids to have in their lunchboxes throughout April. Maybe I overdid it last year, because I felt a little uninspired by my usual (plain) recipe, so for this year I invented my own. I looked at lots of different anzac recipes and sort of combined them together, (and raided the pantry for whatever I found in there) to get this combination. I like how they're pretty much an entire breakfast in a cookie (at least, in my opinion.) Happy baking!
2012 ANZAC biscuits
150 grams butter
3 Tb golden syrup
1 cup sultanas
1 3/4 cups plain flour
1/2 cup brown sugar
1 cup rolled oats
1 cup coconut
1/2 cup sunflower seeds
1/2 cup chopped dried apricots (or any other dried fruit)
1 tsp baking soda
1/4 cup boiling water
Place the butter, syrup and sultanas in a saucepan over a medium heat until the butter is melted. In a large bowl, mix together all the other ingredients, except for the baking soda and hot water. Stir well.
In a small bowl, pour the hot water over the baking soda then add this to the melted butter mixture. Stir, then add to the dry ingredients. Mix well. Roll into large balls then press flat with a fork. Bake at 180 degrees celcius for about 10-15 minutes then cool on a rack.
