          ANZAC Cookies with a Twist

          Baking these golden oaty ANZAC biscuits on ANZAC Day is an annual tradition that honours our New Zealand servicemen and women. It's a day when I fondly remember my own Poppa, a proud WWII veteran and a true Kiwi who embodied the spirit of bravery and camaraderie.


          In my Anzac Biscuit recipe below, I've added a twist to the traditional biscuit by including the spice of crystallized ginger, a drizzle of chocolate, and a sprinkle of sea salt. I always use Harraways oats as it feels right to use a 100% Kiwi company, plus I personally prefer the taste and quality of the products.
