📖 The Story Behind This Dish

Anzac biscuits are said to be the biscuits families sent to soldiers of the Australian and New Zealand Army Corps (ANZAC) during World War I. They're made without eggs from long-keeping oats, coconut, and golden syrup. On Anzac Day, April 25, they're baked at home and in schools to remember the fallen.

🌆 Where it's eaten: On the morning of Anzac Day, April 25, after the dawn service, a family returns home to bake biscuits and quietly enjoy them with tea.
