Ingredients
- 1 cup Gluten-free rolled oats
- 1 cup Gluten-free all-purpose flour
- 0.75 cup Unsweetened desiccated coconut
- 1 cup Brown sugar
- 0.5 cup Butter
- 2 tablespoons Golden syrup
- 2 tablespoons Water
- 1 teaspoon Baking soda
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, combine the gluten-free rolled oats, gluten-free all-purpose flour, desiccated coconut, and brown sugar. Mix well to ensure all dry ingredients are evenly distributed.
Step 3
In a small saucepan over low heat, melt the butter along with the golden syrup and water. Stir occasionally until the mixture is fully melted and combined.
Step 4
Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the baking soda. The mixture will froth up slightly, which is normal.
Step 5
Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and mix with a spatula or wooden spoon until a sticky dough forms and all ingredients are well incorporated.
Step 6
Using your hands, roll tablespoons of the mixture into balls and place onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving enough space between each to allow for spreading during baking.
Step 7
Lightly press the tops of each ball with the back of a fork to flatten slightly.
Step 8
Bake in the preheated oven for 12 to 15 minutes, or until the cookies are golden brown.
Step 9
Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheets for about 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 10
Enjoy your gluten-free ANZAC cookies with a cup of tea or as a standalone treat!
