ANZAC Day is almost here, which means it's time to start making our favourite quick and easy biscuit of the year. This recipe is very close to the traditional version we all know and love, but with slightly higher amounts of coconut, golden syrup and butter, the end result is more chewy than crumbly.

Our best Anzac biscuit recipe is undoubtedly an Aussie and NZ classic, and it's ridiculously easy to make - whether you’re marking Anzac Day or you just want to bake something quick with ingredients you already have in your pantry.
<h2>Where did Anzac biscuits come from?</h2>
It’s believed the original recipe evolved from a hard, almost indestructible ‘tile’ bikkie issued to Australian and New Zealand Army Corps soldiers for sustenance during wartime to the delightfully golden sweet biscuit we know and love today. And while it’s true the ingredients of traditional Anzac biccies have changed little over the past century, what does vary significantly is people’s preference on crunchy versus chewy. It's a big call to make.
<h2>What's the perfect Anzac biscuit texture?</h2>
We asked our team here what texture the perfect Anzac biccie should be and we couldn’t reach an agreement. Some love their biscuits crispy, some chewy, and some in between. Luckily for the Anzac connoisseurs out there, this classic  recipe can easily be adapted to suit even the most particular of tastes. Whether chewy, crispy, crunchy or super soft - we have you covered.
Be sure to check out our detailed notes below our best Anzac biscuit recipe to help you make this biscuit recipe your own. Best of all, as far as the best Anzac biccies go, it really is such an easy recipe. Your biggest challenge will be allowing these absolutely delicious treats to cool (or at least cool slightly) on a wire rack before devouring them.
