Notes
- The bake time for Anzac Biscuits is quite short. Watch the oven closely and/or set a timer so that you don't burn your biscuits.
- When the biscuits first come out of the oven they will be soft, leave them to cool on their trays before trying to move them around. When they are warm they are quite fragile, but they harden as they cool down.
- Store your Anzac Biscuits in an air tight container for up to 5 days. You can also freeze this biscuit recipe
- These Anzac biscuits are perfect for ice cream sandwiches
- This recipe makes a delicious crust for a cheese cake or as a crumble topping on a fruit crumble
- Gluten-free corn flakes: This recipe also works with brown rice flakes and gluten free special K cereal. Although my son's favourite version is this one with cornflakes.
- Butter: This can be substituted with coconut oil or a full fat margarine such as Nuttelex.
- Golden syrup: This can be substituted for maple syrup or honey, but the flavour will change a bit if you use these substitutes.
