2 Combine golden syrup, oil and water in a microwave-proof bowl and stir to combine. Microwave on HIGH for 25–30 seconds. Whisk in baking soda until well combined (it might foam up a little).

Quite dense. Used rice bran oil which effected the taste. They don’t taste sweet like normal anzacs
If you use canola there’s no strong taste. I love that they are not sickly sweet like normal Anzac biscuits – and they’re great with a cup of tea.
