Burwood Memorial : in memory of those who sacrificed for the country. Most of the war heroes fought in wars of other countries, not in Australian territory.

ANZAC Biscuits

Makes 25

60 g butter
1 tbsp golden syrup
2 tsp water
½ tsp bicarbonate of soda
½ cup rolled oats
½ cup desiccated coconut
½ cup plain flour, sifted
½ cup brown sugar

Preheat oven to 160 C.
Heat the buter and syrup in a saucepan over low heat until the butter is melted. Then add water and set aside.

Combine remaining ingredients in a mixing bowl. Then pour the warm butter mixture over and stir to combine.

Line 1 large or 2 small baking trays with baking paper. Roll level tablespoons of mixture into balls and place on the tray about 5 cm apart. Flatten slightly with a fork.

Bake for 12 mins or until golden brown.

Remove from the oven and leave the biscuits on the tray for a further 5 mins. Then allow to cool on a wire rack.
Store in an airtight container.
