Issue 16 - Monday 27 April 2026

These tasty treats were created during World War 1 ( WW1 ) when Mums, Dads, Aunts, Uncles, Nannas and Grandads, girlfriends and lovers, all tightly packed up a dozen or two into a sturdy tin when they wanted to send nutritious food to their soldiers serving overseas. They were durable enough to withstand the weeks it took for them to arrive in the war zones. Although a wise octogenarian once told me that the original biscuits were so jolly hard that the diggers would smash them up to a powder in order to eat the sweet treat from home.

Over 100 years later, the recipe ingredients remain relatively unchanged, oats, flour, sugar, butter, golden syrup, baking soda and coconut ( added to the recipe later as it was not available during WW1 ). These ingredients were selected at that time for their long shelf life and ability to withstand long journeys without spoiling. The name “ANZAC” was officially adopted in 1916 and the crispy morsels became synonymous with the ANZAC spirit of resilience.

They were much more than a means of sustenance but more importantly a comforting reminder of home for soldiers on those perilous front lines.

In 1921, the federal Government implemented regulations to protect the use of the ANZAC name, ensuring that any product bearing it would uphold the values associated with the ANZAC tradition. Over ten decades later the biscuits have evolved into a popular snack, enjoyed with a cup of tea or a glass of icy cold milk. Especially during ANZAC Day commemorations on April 25, each year. I have an enduring memory of always making these with my granny in the afternoon of ANZAC Day and to this day continue that tradition with my little people. The biscuits have a delightful blend of sweet and almost nutty flavours, with a rich caramel like infusion from the simple addition of golden syrup.

Today, they serve as a symbol of national pride and remembrance, a kind of culinary bridge between the past and the present both here in Australia and in New Zealand.

Here is a link to one of my favourite recipes so you can make a batch of this “ taste of home” anytime https://www.womensweeklyfood.com.au/recipe/baking/best-anzac-biscuits-recipe-28575/
