What is the real story behind the ANZAC biscuit? You might have thought these were lovingly made and sent to troops at Gallipoli, but it turns out that is probably a myth. Extensive research shows that it is unlikely they were made quite like today’s recipe (war biscuits were so tough they were sometimes used by soldiers as stationery) or that they were packed into tins and shipped overseas.
Nevertheless, the ANZAC biscuit has long been associated with the Australian and New Zealad Army Corps and baking your own each year is a way to remember those who served and died for us.
We’ve rounded up some of our favourite ANZAC recipes, and if you can, donate to the RSA and head to your local ANZAC service this year.
