    ANZAC Biscuits are always a popular biscuit tin filler in our house. They're perfect for school lunchboxes or an afternoon tea treat with a cuppa.

    For years I made ANZACS using my classic and conventional ANZAC biscuit recipe... but then I discovered how much quicker and easier it was to make them in my Thermomix. Game changer!

    You'll be eating a batch of chewy-on-the-inside and crunchy-on-the-outside Thermomix ANZAC biscuits in just 20 minutes.

    Why You're Going To Love Making ANZAC Biscuits In Your Thermomix

    The Thermomix makes whipping up a batch of ANZAC biscuits SO incredibly easy:

    • Suitable For All Thermomix Models - My Thermomix ANZAC Biscuit recipe can be made using any of the Thermomix models - including the TM31, TM5 and the TM6.
    • One Bowl - Forget about washing up! The entire ANZAC dough is prepared in the Thermomix bowl.
    • Double Batch - You can easily make a double batch of the ANZAC biscuit mixture in your Thermomix.
    • Great Recipe For Kids - My son absolutely LOVES making ANZAC biscuits in the Thermomix. It's a simple enough recipe for even young children and toddlers to help with.

    What You Need

    The best thing about Thermomix ANZAC Biscuits is that they're made from pantry and fridge staple ingredients... meaning you probably have everything you need already!

    Note: Scroll to the recipe card at the bottom for the ingredients quantities and full detailed method

    The ingredients for ANZAC biscuits.
    • Butter - you can use either salted or unsalted butter in ANZAC biscuits. Ensure you chop the butter into small chunks before placing into the Thermomix (this helps with melting).
    • Golden Syrup - a very popular baking ingredient in Australia and New Zealand. This sweet, sticky syrup can be replaced with rice malt syrup.
    • Brown Sugar - this gives the Thermomix ANZAC biscuits their sweet, caramel flavour.
    • Bi-Carbonate of Soda - also known as baking soda. This make the biscuits rise.
    • Rolled Oats - classic old fashioned rolled oats give ANZACS the best texture. However, you can also use quick oats if you prefer.
    • Plain Flour - also known as all-purpose flour.
    • Desiccated Coconut - some ANZAC biscuit recipes use shredded coconut, however, I personally prefer the texture of desiccated coconut. You can use desiccated or shredded coconut depending on your preference (and what you have at home).

    Equipment

    Your Thermomix machine makes preparing ANZAC biscuit dough SO easy!

    • Thermomix Machine - this Thermomix ANZAC Biscuit recipe can be made using any of the Thermomix models - TM31, TM5 and TM6.
    • Oven - I specify temperatures using a fan-forced oven. Add 10 degrees celsius if using a conventional oven.

    How To Make ANZACS Using A Thermomix

    Just 10 minutes and 4 simple steps is all it takes to prepare ANZAC Biscuits using your Thermomix machine.

    Note: Scroll to the recipe card at the bottom for the ingredients quantities and full detailed method

    Step 1 - Melt

    Place the chopped butter, brown sugar and golden syrup into the Thermomix bowl. Melt for 3 minutes (or until sticky and smooth).

    Step 2 - Add The Bi-Carbonate Soda & Water

    Add the bi-carbonate soda (baking soda) and cold water to the mixture in the Thermomix bowl. Mix to combine.

    Step 3 - Add The Dry Ingredients

    Mix through the rolled oats, plain flour and coconut.

    TIP: Use the REVERSE function in this step to avoid chopping the oats.

    Step 4 - Bake

    There's no need to chill the dough when making Thermomix ANZAC Biscuits.

    Simply roll into tablespoon sized balls and place onto flat baking trays.

    TIP: Allow a 5cm gap between the mixture to allow for spreading.

    Bake for 10-12 minutes or until just lightly golden.

    TIP: Do NOT overcook the biscuits or they will lose their deliciously chewy texture.

    FAQ

    Can I use a TM6 to make this recipe?

    Yes! My Thermomix ANZAC Biscuits recipe is suitable for use in all Thermomix machine models - the TM31, TM5 and TM6.

    What is the REVERSE function and why is it used when mixing the dry ingredients through?

    The Reverse function on the Thermomix machine makes the blades move in reverse and therefore, the blunt edge is used rather than the sharp edge. This function is used for mixing, as compared to chopping. I recommend using the Reverse function when mixing through the dry ingredients as it stops the rolled oats from being chopped into a fine powder and instead keeps them whole and retains their chewy texture.

    Can I make my biscuits crunchy rather than chewy?

    Absolutely! For crunchy biscuits, simply cook them for 12-15 minutes rather than 10-12 minutes.

    Can I make these ANZAC biscuits without a Thermomix?

    Of course! Simply click here for my conventional ANZAC biscuit recipe.

    Expert Tips

    It couldn't be easier to make ANZAC biscuits using your Thermomix!

    Don't overcook the biscuits

    I recommend cooking the biscuits for 10-12 minutes or until just lightly golden. This will give you ANZACS that are chewy on the inside and crunchy on the edges. For crunchy ANZACS, you can cook for 12-15 minutes, but no longer.

    Storing

    Store Thermomix ANZAC biscuits for up to 1 month in an airtight container at room temperature. As they contain no egg, these biscuits will last for a long time without spoiling.

    Freezing

    Freeze the unbaked dough for up to 3 months or the baked cookies for up to 1 month.
