This is one of the last posts I´ll be doing today! So as a lot of you may now ANZAC Day is tomorrow! Last term we did a lot of activities near the end of the term for ANZAC Day and we were given today to again complete one or more activities that were related to ANZAC Day if we had the things for it or if we had enough time.
There were 4 activities that we could choose out of or do all of them and I chose to make the ANZAC Biscuits and DLO about the ANZAC Biscuits. I took 3 pictures for my ANZAC Biscuits. I also didn´t have any shredded coconuts for it.
Here is my ANZAC Biscuit Poster!

Heres the mixture!
It was kind of dry so I added a bit more hot water and since I didn´t have any more butter I just put canola oil :(
In the beginning I didn´t check if we had enough butter and ended up not having enough:( but it was okay still. I also remembered to wash my hands before I started baking. REMEMBER TO DO THAT IT IS VERY IMPORTANT!!! When I had made the mixture and put it on the tray I opened the oven and realized that there were trays in there while it was preheating and I panicked but my dad said it was alright!
In the instructions it says to bake for about 8 - 10 mins but mine ended up going in for 20 mins!
Here they are!
There were 10 and I had given my mum and dad one before. I shared them with my family!
I took the photos on my trampoline because I thought it would be better lighting but when I was trying to take the photo with the chrome book it just blocked out the sun :(
Something I found hard doing this was not having enough butter and I was trying to get all of the butter out but on the food scale it said there was only 60g out of it ;(
Something I enjoyed with this was the finished product because it tasted really good and I enjoyed sharing them!
In the end I had loads of fun doing this activity and I cant wait for ANZAC Day and to get more butter so I can make more tomorrow!

Hi Siale,
ReplyDeleteIt's great to see that you have been working on some ANZAC activities at home. They biscuits look yummy... would be great to have one with a nice coffee :)
I personally like crunchy Anzac biscuits, so I flatten them with a fork. This also helps keep the baking time shorter as a thicker biscuit requires more baking time. Good on you for making some mental notes about what you would do/check on next time.
Keep up the good work - stay safe!!
Hi Mrs Lee!!
DeleteThank you for spending the time to comment on my blog! The biscuits were really nice and I enjoyed them with a cup of milk;) I really like biscuits which are soft because I think it just tastes better to me! Thanks for telling me about how you get yours crunchy because now I can try and make crunchier biscuits!
Hope you and your family are doing well in this time! Everyone misses you at school;(

Hi Siale.
ReplyDeleteGreat blog. I love Anzac biscuits. I liked that you didn't have enough of the right ingredients but you diversified and finished with great looking biscuits. Well done.

Hi Siale,
ReplyDeleteYour biscuits looked delicious I did the same activity for ANZAC day.
I like how you explained what you enjoyed and didn't.
Next time just make sure the writing is easy to read I found it hard on the first DLO.
Kind regards,
