Questions
How many calories in three Anzac biscuits?
About 360 kcal.
Why is there no egg in Anzac biscuits?
The recipe was made without it, and that's one reason the biscuits keep well for a long time.
Can you call them Anzac cookies?
The word Anzac is protected by law in Australia and New Zealand, and the official line is that they're biscuits, never cookies.
Are Anzac biscuits healthy because of the oats?
The oats help a little. Most of the 120 kcal still comes from butter and sugar.
Chewy or crunchy?
Both are correct, and families will fight about it. A little longer in the oven makes them crunchy.
