Anzac Biscuits
4 servings
60 minutes
ANZAC biscuits are sweet and crunchy cookies that originated during World War I, created by Australian and New Zealand women to send to soldiers at the front. They stay fresh due to the absence of eggs and the presence of honey. The unique flavor combines oats, coconut, and caramel notes from brown sugar, making them aromatic and rich.
