Ingredients:

1 cup all-purpose white wheat flour
1 cup oats
1 cup dried coconut meat
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup butter
2 tbsp maple syrup
1 tsp baking soda

Anzac Biscuits are a traditional treat from Australia and New Zealand, with a history dating back to WWI. These giant versions offer a chewy, delicious snack that is perfect for any occasion.

Instructions:

1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.

2. Combine Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine 1 cup of all-purpose white wheat flour, 1 cup of oats, 1 cup of dried coconut meat, and 1/2 cup of brown sugar. Mix well to ensure even distribution of the ingredients.

3. Melt Butter and Maple Syrup: In a small saucepan, combine 1/2 cup of butter and 2 tablespoons of maple syrup. Heat over low to medium heat until the butter is fully melted and the mixture is well combined.

4. Add Baking Soda: Remove the saucepan from heat. Add 1 teaspoon of baking soda to the butter and maple syrup mixture and stir until fully dissolved. The mixture will foam up slightly due to the reaction between the baking soda and the syrup, which is normal.

5. Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients: Pour the melted butter, syrup, and baking soda mixture into the bowl containing the dry ingredients. Stir well until all ingredients are fully combined and form a thick, sticky dough.

6. Shape the Biscuits: Using a spoon or an ice cream scoop, form large balls of dough (about the size of a golf ball) and place them on the prepared baking sheet. Flatten each ball slightly with your hand or the back of the spoon to form biscuit shapes. Leave some space between each biscuit as they will spread slightly during baking.

7. Bake: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 15-18 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden brown around the edges. Keep an eye on them as baking times may vary depending on your oven.

8. Cool: Remove the biscuits from the oven and allow them to cool on the baking sheet for about 5 minutes. Then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.

9. Serve and Enjoy: Once cooled, your giant Anzac biscuits are ready to be enjoyed! Store any leftovers in an airtight container to keep them fresh.

Tips:

- Ensure that the butter is softened to room temperature for easier mixing.

- Using a cookie scoop or ice cream scoop helps in creating uniformly sized biscuits.

- For extra crispiness, allow the biscuits to cool completely on the baking tray before transferring them to a wire rack.

- Store in an airtight container to maintain freshness and prevent the biscuits from becoming stale.
