How to Make Anzac Biscuits With Macadamias Australian
- Preheat oven to 160°C (320°F). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Toast 1 cup of macadamia nuts in a dry skillet over medium heat for 5-7 minutes, or until fragrant and lightly browned. Set aside to cool completely.
- In a large bowl, combine 2 cups all-purpose flour, 1 ½ cups rolled oats, 1 cup caster sugar, ½ cup desiccated coconut, and the toasted macadamia nuts.
- In a small saucepan, combine ½ cup boiling water, ½ cup golden syrup, and 1 teaspoon baking soda.
- Bring to a boil, stirring constantly. Remove from heat and stir in 125g (½ cup) unsalted butter until melted and combined.
- Let the butter mixture cool slightly for about 5 minutes. Pour the warm wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix with a wooden spoon until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving approximately 3cm (1 ¼ inch) between each biscuit.
- Gently flatten each biscuit slightly with the back of a spoon.
- Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until golden brown and slightly firm. For chewier biscuits, bake for 12 minutes; for crispier biscuits, bake for 15 minutes.
- Remove from oven and let cool completely on the baking sheet before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
Want to unlock deeper, more complex flavors? Try toasting your whole spices before grinding them, or blooming ground spices in a little warm oil to enhance their aroma. Deglazing your pan with a bit of stock, wine, or even water after browning ingredients can capture those tasty caramelized bits, adding richness to your dish.
