Recipe: Anzac Biscuits
Anzac biscuits are a delicious and beloved Kiwi classic that holds a special place in the hearts of many. With their chewy texture, sweet flavor, and golden colour, these home-baked treats are enjoyed year-round, but they are especially meaningful during this month to honour their rich history and cultural significance.
Our friends (and go-to) down the road from our Birkenhead store at Casual Foodie do all the work in taking quality ingredients and cooking them with time, passion, and plenty of good stuff. This year, they've outdone themselves by mastering the perfect Anzac Biscuit. Owner and cook, Christine has shared the recipe they have been serving up with us so you can try this classic at home yourself.
