Anzac Biscuits

Ingredients

• 1½ cup rolled oats
• ½ cup plain flour
• ⅓ cup sugar
• 4 tablespoons canola margarine
• 2 tablespoons golden syrup
• 1 teaspoon bicarbonate soda
• 1 tablespoon boiling water

Method

1. Preheat oven to 160ºC and line a baking tray with baking paper.
2. Mix together the oats, flour and sugar in a medium bowl.
3. Using a microwave oven or stovetop, heat margarine together with golden syrup until melted.
4. In a small bowl, combine water and bicarbonate of soda. Gently pour into the golden syrup mix while stirring.
5. Pour syrup mix into the dry ingredients and mix-together until well combined.
6. Roll a spoonful of mixture into balls and place on baking trays lined with non-stick baking paper. Press down tops to flatten slightly.
7. Bake for approximately 20 minutes or until golden brown. Stand for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool.
