  • 2 tablespoons golden syrup
  • ½ teaspoon bicarbonate of soda

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 180 degrees celsius (fan-forced) and line an 18 x 28cm slice tin with baking paper.
  • Place the butter, brown sugar and golden syrup into a small saucepan and cook over a medium/low heat while stirring occasionally for 4-5 minutes or until the butter and melted and combined with the other ingredients.
  • Add the bicarbonate of soda and use a whisk to combine.

Thermomix Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 180 degrees celsius (fan-forced) and line an 18 x 28cm slice tin with baking paper.
  • Place the butter, golden syrup and brown sugar into the Thermomix bowl and cook for 2 minutes, 100 degrees, speed 2 to melt.
  • Scrape down the sides of the bowl and add the bicarbonate of soda and mix for 10 seconds on Speed 3.
  • Add the rolled oats, plain flour and coconut and mix for 20 seconds, REVERSE, Speed 2 to combine. Scrape down the sides of the bowl and mix for a further 10 seconds, REVER, speed 2 until combined.
  • Place the mixture into the tray and press down firmly before popping it into the oven to bake for 22-25 minutes or until lightly golden brown.
  • Leave the Anzac Slice in the baking tray to cool for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

  • It is important to not skip adding the bicarbonate of soda, if you miss this step your slice will be hard.
  • I recommend using rolled oats and not quick oats for this recipe.
  • The golden syrup can be substituted with honey, however your slice will have a different flavour.
  • Allow the cooked slice to cool  in the baking tray before removing and slicing into pieces, otherwise it will crack if moved/cut while still warm.
  • To store, place in an airtight container and store at room temperature for up to seven days.
