If there’s something Aussies and Kiwis can come together over, it’s ANZAC Day and its namesake biscuit. These are a little hempier than the army-originals, are vegan and SUPER easy to make gluten free. Let’s get into it!

Recipe adapted from FoodieGee
METHOD
- Preheat oven to 180°C (160°C fan-forced).
- Combine dry ingredients in a medium bowl and set aside.
- Heat molasses and nut butter in a small saucepan until melted and combined into a smooth mixture.
- Add bicarb soda and water to the wet mixture and stir to combine.
- Add wet mixture to the bowl of dry ingredients and mix to form the cookie dough.
- Place heaped tablespoon sized balls onto a lined baking tray and flatten slightly. Bake for 15-20 minutes or until golden brown.
- The biscuits will be quite soft straight out of the oven, so leave them to cool completely and they will harden up, before transferring to a container (or your mouth.)
