Hurry up ANZAC day! I wanna make these again! Tooo good!
LOL! It can be Anzac Day every day.
I made these in honor of my parents flying halfway around the world to NZ, to see my step brother. I have to say, I’m very glad no one else is around, because now there are more for me! I love the taste, but I think since I used a baking stone, my cookies came out very flat and crispy. I decreased the bake time on the second batch, and that seemed to help a bit. I think next time I’ll try a traditional cookie sheet. But, there will deffo be a next time as these little darlings are DELICIOUS!
Thanks so much for sharing your experience.
Thanks Ron,
I didn’t know that. I will change the title now.
I have modified this as we don’t eat maple syrup – have used one tbs agave and 3 tbs rice syrup… Here’s hoping it works!!
How did you go?
Wonderful Janet!
Thanks for sharing your blend.
Let me know how they turn out. YUMMO!
Thanks Mona! Enjoy.
I know….I could easily polish off an entire batch to myself.
Yay! Enjoy!
I hope you enjoy them.
Yes, they are sweet. You can halve the sugar and they’re still delicious.
What can I sub for vegan butter? Coconut oil? Thanks!!
Sorry Nina, I haven’t tried using coconut oil in these. You could try using it, but I fear it will be too oily and the flavor will be too pronounced. I’m sorry I am heading out to catch a plane for the holidays or I would test them for you.
Thanks a bunch! Maybe coconut butter…I’ll try
Please let me know how you go.
LOL! Enjoy.
Yes, they are very sweet. I was trying to replicate the taste of the traditional recipe. You can even halve the sugar and they’re still amazing.
I think so, too. Glad you enjoyed them.
