What is Anzac Biscuit?

Anzac Biskuit is a traditional Australian and New Zealand biscuits made of oats, coconut, syrup and butter. Originally it was produced to send the Australian and New Zealand Army Choir (ANZAC), who fight in Gallipoli in the First World War. Nowadays they ate anytime, but especially on a commemorative annual holiday called Anzac Day. The result is chewing and sweet biscuit, which they enjoy both young and old. Some recipes add soda bicarbonate and others use baking soda. In a pan over low heat, the butter melts and the syrup is added. A little water and soda bicarbonate is mixed into molten and syrup butter. The mixture is then divided by a tablespoon on a lubricated baking tray. Each biscuit uses about a tablespoon of mixture and should be flattened with a fork. A touch should not be placed, but some space should be left between any ANZAC biscuit to allow expansion during cooking.

Biscuits is then baked in a pre -heated furnace for about ten minutes until they are golden brown. They are best eaten fresh from the oven but maintained well. Biscuits and the dough can be frozen for several months.

The origin of Anzac Biscuit was from Australian involvement with the Allies in World War II. The submarine Anzac Velená Henry Stoker landed on Gallipoli on April 25, 1915, which made him the first main military event in Australia New Zealand in the First World War.

During this time, the strong contingent of the soldiers Anzac in Gallipoli and Anzac Biscuits was one of the "goodies" sent from home by beloved soldiers. Anzac Day is still celebrated every year 25th April and is a national holiday. It is a monument's day for all those who died during the war, and traditionally, during commemorative celebrations, Anzac biscuits are consumed.
