Ingredients
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 0.75 cup desiccated coconut
- 0.75 cup brown sugar
- 0.5 teaspoon baking soda
- 2 tablespoons boiling water
- 1 tablespoon golden syrup
- 0.25 cup neutral-flavored oil (like canola or vegetable oil)
- 0.5 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Step 2
In a large bowl, combine the rolled oats, flour, desiccated coconut, brown sugar, and salt. Mix these dry ingredients well.
Step 3
In a small heatproof bowl, combine the baking soda and boiling water. Stir to dissolve the baking soda completely.
Step 4
Add the golden syrup, oil, and vanilla extract to the dissolved baking soda mixture, and stir to combine.
Step 5
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, and mix well until a dough forms. The mixture should be somewhat sticky yet firm.
Step 6
Using a tablespoon, scoop out portions of the dough and shape into small balls, approximately the size of a walnut. Place them onto the prepared baking sheet, about 2 inches apart.
Step 7
Flatten each cookie ball slightly with your fingers or the back of a spoon.
Step 8
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until they are golden brown and firm to the touch.
Step 9
Remove from the oven and let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for about 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 10
Enjoy these delicious dairy-free ANZAC cookies with a cup of tea or coffee!
