ANZAC Biscuits

Yesterday we read ANZAC Biscuits in a school journal from 2007.
It provided some very interesting background around the history of ANZAC biscuits.
The origins are unclear, maybe some variation on Scottish oatcakes or maybe something made by the soldiers in the trenches. But we know they were baked in New Zealand and sent to the soldiers in care packages.
Christopher then spent some time making the biscuits, independently.
This was an interesting activity and he learned the importance of accurately measuring all ingredients and ensuring you have the correct measuring cup!
The biscuits turned out very well.
