2 tablespoon golden syrup or treacle

1/2 teaspoon bicarbonate of soda

2 tablespoon boiling water

Method

Macadamia anzac biscuits

1.Preheat oven to 180°C (160°C fan-forced).

2.Grease 2 oven trays; line with baking paper.

3.In a medium saucepan, stir butter and syrup over low heat for about 3 minutes or until smooth. Stir in combined soda and the water, then remaining ingredients.

4.Roll level tablespoons of mixture into balls; place 5cm apart on trays, then flatten slightly.

5.Bake biscuits for about 15 minutes, or until golden. Cool on trays.

Make sure you use rolled oats rather than quick-cooking oats as they will produce a different result. These can be stored in an airtight container for up to 1 week.
