Description
This Condensed Milk ANZAC Biscuit Slab is a delightful twist on the classic ANZAC biscuit. Combining the richness of sweetened condensed milk with the golden syrup and coconut flavors, this slab brings a chewy, buttery texture that’s perfect for snacking or sharing.
Ingredients
1 1/2 cups rolled oats
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 cup desiccated coconut
1 cup brown sugar
150 g (2/3 cup) unsalted butter
1/4 cup golden syrup (or honey)
1/3 cup sweetened condensed milk
1 tsp baking soda
2 tbsp hot water
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Grease and line a 9×13-inch baking pan with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, combine the rolled oats, flour, desiccated coconut, and brown sugar.
- In a saucepan over low heat, melt the butter, golden syrup, and condensed milk together. Stir until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
- In a small bowl, dissolve the baking soda in hot water, then stir it into the melted butter mixture (it will foam slightly).
- Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and stir until everything is well mixed.
- Press the mixture evenly into the prepared baking pan.
- Bake for 20–25 minutes, or until the top is golden brown.
- Allow the slab to cool completely in the pan before slicing it into squares or bars.
Notes
This recipe makes approximately 12-16 servings, depending on how large you slice the bars.
Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for 4-5 days or refrigerated for up to a week.
The slab can be frozen for up to 3 months if wrapped tightly in plastic wrap.
For a vegan version, swap the butter for plant-based butter and use maple syrup instead of golden syrup.
Chocolate drizzle is a great addition for an indulgent twist.
