A twist on the classic Anzac biscuit!
Ingredients
-
200g rolled oats
-
150g desiccated coconut
-
250g plain flour
-
200g raw sugar
-
100g dried cranberries
-
75g dried apricots (sliced thinly)
-
75g dried peaches or other fruit
-
75g toasted sunflower seeds
-
4 tablespoons toasted sesame seeds
-
285g melted butter
-
170g golden syrup
-
2 teaspoons bicarbonate of soda
-
4 tablespoons boiling water
Preparation method
- Mix all dry ingedients together in a very large pan or bowl.
- Melt butter and golden syrup together in a pot until just boiling.
- Blend the bicarb with the boiling water, stirring to dissolve.
- Remove butter mixture from the heat and add the bicarb mix. Stir gently, and add to the dry ingredients. Blend in well with a wooden spoon, and then use your hands to mix in completely.
- Mould mixture into large tablespoon sized balls - It is important to really squeeze the mixture into a firm ball to ensure a firm biscuit that will not crumble & fall apart after baking. Flattern the balls slightly on the baking tray - keeping their round shape. Bake at 180 C / Gas 4 for 10-15 minutes.
- Cool on a rack. When cool these are even more delicious when you half dip then in melted dark chocolate! These keep really well in an airtight container.
