Anzac day was yesterday ~ lest we forget
{taken with a phone}
Master D and his dad baked Anzac biscuits. 
These biscuits were sent to the Australian and New Zealand troops during World War I.
Pauline from Lessons Learnt Journal shared her yummy Anzac recipe last week and here is ours *smile*

Mix your dry ingredients together while the butter is melting. Then add the wet ingredients to the dry.
Roll balls and place on baking tray… eat a couple because they are tasty… leave lots of room for spreading
Bake for around 12 minutes at 160°C (about 320°F) 

Enjoy!


We can’t wait to see what you’ve been up to in the kitchen with your kids!

What did you bake with your little ones this week? Or, if you don’t have anything new we’d love to see something from your archives 😉

Below is a linky list to join in the fun and start sharing what you bake with your children so we can inspire each other. Family favourites, new recipes, traditional or cultural recipes – you name it, we’d like to read about them and if you include the details, try them out 🙂

For our baking day this week Master D and I made ANZAC biscuits. These biscuits are a traditional biscuit in Australia and New Zealand (they stand for Australian and New Zealand Army Corps) and a version were made and sent to our soldiers during WW1.
So because today is ~ Australia Day ~ they seemed appropriate 🙂 You need:
3/4 cup rolled oats
1/2 cup sugar
3/4 cup coconut
3/4 cup flour
2 tbsp golden syrup
1 tsp bicarb
2 tbsp hot water
1/2 cup butter

Melt the butter in a saucepan with the golden syrup.

Once melted add the bicarb and hot water – enjoy watching it bubble!

Add the dry ingredients and mix well (no longer on the hot plate).

 

Roll the mixture into balls and place on tray – allow a good amount of space because these biscuits spread.

Bake for around 15 minutes at 160°C (about 320°F)

 I always aim for biscuits that are slightly crunchy on the outside but chewy in the middle – yum!
We can’t wait to see what you are baking!
