Minaret Station ANZAC Biscuits
/Our Family Recipe Shared by Head Chef, Alastair Wilson
25 April, 2020
ANZAC biscuits, a long-standing tradition and a symbol of remembrance for those who have fought and died for our country. The tradition began when wives and groups would send these biscuits to soldiers abroad as the ingredients did not spoil during transportation. These delicious biscuits were also used as means to raise funds to support war efforts. Enjoy our family recipe as we commemorate our servicemen and women this weekend.
