Our favourite ANZAC Day recipes

As we prepare to show our respects on ANZAC Day, we share our favourite biscuits and bites.

The ANZAC biscuit is a recipe of love.

Baked from the heart by mothers, wives and girlfriends for their partners heading overseas at war.

The recipe contains ingredients that won’t easily spoil on the long journey overseas. Oats, flour, golden syrup. Ingredients readily available in the pantry.

We’re told the biscuits were first called Soldiers’ Biscuits, but after the landing on Gallipoli, they were renamed ANZAC Biscuits.

Thanks to Foodtolove.co.nz, here are some of our favourites recipes inspired by the traditional biscuit.
