ANZAC Biscuits

I have lost my tried and true recipe for ANZAC biscuits so after much cursing the universe I decided to start again. I dredged my memory and surfed cooking websites for reminders and decided to take it one step further and try it with the thermomix too!

Melt 125g butter and 45g golden syrup together at 70 degrees for 4 minutes at speed 1 or until liquid.

Add 160g plain flour, 110g rolled oats, 50g shredded coconut and 75g brown sugar. Mix at reverse speed 2 for 15 seconds then scrape sides and mix again at speed 2 for a further 15 seconds.

Pop the measuring cup with 1/2 teaspoon of bicarbonate soda in it on the lid and weigh in 30g boiling water then tip into the bowl and mix again speed 2 reverse 15 seconds.

Scoop dessertspoon sized portions out and roll into balls and place on a paper lined baking tray. Squish lightly with a fork to flatten then bake at 170 degrees (fan forced) until golden brown.

They are a little bit chewy in the middle which is how the Hillseys like them!
