CONVENTIONAL METHOD

• Preheat oven to 160℃. Line 2 large baking trays with baking paper.
• Add butter, syrup and water to bowl and microwave on high for 2 minutes.
• Fold through the remaining ingredients until well combined.
• Roll approximately 35g balls of mixture into a small ball. Place onto the prepared tray and flatten slightly. Leave plenty of room between each biscuit as the mixture will spread.
• Bake 15-18 minutes or until lightly golden. Remove and cool on trays for 5 minutes before lifting onto cooling trays and let cool and set for 1- 2 hours before serving.

THERMOMIX METHOD

• Preheat oven to 160℃. Line two large baking trays with baking paper.
• Add butter, syrup and water to the mixer; cook 2 minutes/90℃/speed 1
• Add the remaining ingredients; mix 15 sec/speed 4. Follow from step 4 above

Notes

1. Store in an airtight container for up to one week.
2. These biscuits can be frozen.
3. First, out of the oven the biscuit will be soft but will crisp up after a couple of hours cooling.
4. Cool Anzac’s on a wire tray
5. Sukrin Gold syrup has the same viscosity of golden syrup it cannot be replaced with any other low carb product to achieve the same texture. If preferred you can try extra gold sweetener, but this has not been tested.
6. Beef gelatin helps provide the chew in a low carb Anzac biscuit. I choose to use Great Lakes or Locako Pasture-Raised Gelatin. However, MacKenzies from your local supermarket will suffice.
7. Hemp seeds provide fabulous plant-based protein and loads of health benefit
