Ingredients

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 325 and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper. Set aside.
  • In a large bowl, combine the oats, spelt flour, coconut, and coconut sugar and stir well. Set aside.
  • In a small saucepan over low heat, melt together the coconut oil and maple syrup.
  • Meanwhile, in a small bowl, dissolve the baking soda into the boiling water. Pour the baking soda/water into the melted coconut oil. Remove from the heat and stir well.
  • Pour the coconut oil mixture over the dry mixture and stir until fully combined.
  • Roll tablespoon-sized balls and place three across on the baking sheet, leaving room between each as they will spread a bit.
  • Bake for 8-10 minutes. A shorter bake time means a chewier cookie - longer for crispier.

Notes

  • For chewier cookies, bake these for about 8 minutes, If you want a classic crispy taste bake a little longer.
  • Store these cookies at room temperature or in the fridge in an airtight container for up to 2 weeks. 
  • Add a tsp of ground ginger for a hint of spice.
  • For gluten-free anzac biscuits substitute a gluten-free flour such as Bob's Red Mill All-Purpose Flour.
