    1Preheat oven to 180°C and line a baking tray with baking paper. Combine oats, flours, coconut and sugar in a bowl.

    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).

    3 Add syrup mixture to dry ingredients and mix well. Drop teaspoonfuls of mixture onto baking tray, leaving space between them (they will spread). Flatten with your fingers or a fork.

    4 Bake for 10–15 minutes, until golden. Remove to a wire rack to cool.

      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.
