ANZAC Day

April 25th is ANZAC day in Australia and New Zealand. On this day we take time to remember the brave soldiers of the Australian and New Zealand Army Corps (ANZACs) who landed and fought in Gallipoli, Turkey in World War 1. We also remember and give thanks to all the men and women of the military have served our countries.

ANZAC biscuits (originally called Soldiers' biscuits)
were baked and sent by the wives and mothers of the
soldiers stationed overseas. The biscuits were ideal
because they were cheap to make and contain no eggs or
milk meaning that were able to be shipped long distances
without perishing.

Yoko has often made ANZAC biscuits at school and here is her secret recipe :-)
from the world famous in New Zealand Edmonds Cook Book. Enjoy

125g flour
1 cup coconut
150g sugar
1 cup rolled oats
100g butter
1 tablespoon golden syrup
1/2 teaspoon Bicarb of Soda
2 tablespoons boiling water
Mix together flour, sugar, coconut and rolled oats. Melt butter and golden syrup.
Dissolve Bicarb soda in the boiling water and add to the butter and golden syrup.
Make a well in the centre of flour, stir in the liquid.
Place in spoonfuls on a greased tray.
Bake 15-20 mins at 180 degrees Celsius.
