Anzac Golden Syrup Tart

By 53 Comments

Throughout the years the Anzac biscuit has been a family favourite all over New Zealand. Perhaps it’s the comforting flavours that remind us of home, or what Anzac personally means to you. The flavours of a good Anzac Biscuit are also staple ingredients that everyone should have in the pantry, this is probably another good reason why it’s so popular.

My Golden Syrup Tart is no different and requires the same staple ingredients as the popular biscuit of the same flavours. When thinking about Anzac Biscuit flavours, the golden syrup and butter have always been my favourite part and reminds me of how much I used to love having golden syrup sandwiches when I was younger. Being inspired by these ingredients I’ve taken the best of all elements to create something new. The base of my tart incorporates what we’ve come to love from an Anzac Biscuit, along with a golden syrup, oat and coconut filling for all those sweet tooths out there.

For this recipe, I’ve made the most of incorporating Chelsea’s iconic Golden Syrup, along with their new Raw Caster Sugar which is a welcomed addition to their family. Whatever the occasion, Chelsea has your back with plenty more baking inspiration on their website here.

Serves: 14-16 Slices
Ingredients
  • Base
  • 60g Butter - Room Temp
  • 50g Chelsea Raw Caster Sugar
  • 2 Tablespoon Chelsea Golden Syrup
  • 70g Rolled Oats
  • 30g Desiccated Coconut
  • 100g Plain Flour
  • 1 Teaspoon Baking Powder
  • ½ Teaspoon Salt

  • Filling
  • 25g Butter
  • 450g Chelsea Golden Syrup
  • 1 Egg
  • 3 Tablespoon Full Cream
  • 80g Rolled Oats
  • 50g Desiccated Coconut
Instructions
  1. To start, flick over onto 180 degrees bake and grease a 22cm tart pan. Set aside.
  2. Working on the base, use a free-standing mixer or a hand-held beater to whip the butter, raw caster sugar and golden syrup until pale.
  3. Add the dry ingredients and either mix with a spoon or your hands until you form a crumbly dough.
  4. Pour dough into base of prepared tart pan and firmly press along the bottom and sides.
  5. Place on the middle shelf of the oven and bake for 5 minutes, then remove.
  6. While the base is still warm, start making the filling by adding the butter and golden syrup to a medium sized bowl and warm gently to melt the butter. Remove from the heat and allow to cool slightly.
  7. Using a food processor, blitz the rolled oats and coconut to break them up a bit. For a smoother textured filling, blitz for longer. Set aside.
  8. In a small bowl or jug, beat together the egg and cream.
  9. Mix the rolled oats and coconut through the melted butter and golden syrup before adding in the egg mixture. Fold until smooth and well incorporated.
  10. Pour filling into tart base and return to the oven and bake for another 20 minutes, or until tart and crust are golden and set.
  11. This tart pairs perfectly with fresh or whipped cream, along with a nice scoop of vanilla ice cream. Enjoy.

  11. Yum yum!! Cannot beat a yummy Anzac biscuit meets ginger crunch slice!!! Oooo time to get my baking on!

  12. Definitely ANZAC biscuits, I think I made 4 batches last year because everyone loved their taste! Chelsea produces the vital ingredients too, golden syrup and raw caster sugar. Nothing wrong with a few afghans either, so easy and they balance the sweetness of the Anzacs.

  13. My favourite recipe with sugar? Beer bread: 4 ingredients (baking powder, flour, sugar and beer) no kneading required!
    (Also, if the beer you use is stout, you only need about one slice for a whole meal…)

  16. Delicious! I’d vote for an Anzac-style apple crumble; with an oaty topping featuring golden syrup and lots of butter (and served warm with whipped cream). I’ve also seen some good-looking caramel ANZAC muffins on another recipe site… but the tart above takes the cake. I’ve flagged it for Sunday dessert, and am off to stock up at the supermarket tomorrow.

  17. I can’t bake very well at all but I do use anzac biscuits, crushed up, with my French nilla icecream and a nice ripe banana as a dessert treat. Fantastic way to have them.

  19. I’ll often make Anzac slice for the kids lunchboxes. They love when I add a chocolate drizzle or dried fruit to it.

  20. Every year we make traditional Anzac biscuits – the children love them and are allowed to sneak a few to enjoy when we are headed to/just finishing the Dawn Service ceremony.

  35. The Original Anzac Biscuits are the tradition with our family but that beautiful creation puts a whole different spin on our tradition, looks amazing !!!

  36. In our house if you make Anzac biscuits it seems only fair to make Afghans’ and Belgium Biscuits just to even the sides out 😀

  37. Totally has to be Anzac Caramel Slice for me! My kids love Anzac Slice with chocolate drizzled over the top ❤️

  38. My kids have Anzac biscuits in their lunchboxes all year round. They are so quick and easy to make. We do disagree though whether they should be chewy or crunchy. I prefer them crunchy but my daughter prefers them chewy. Either way, they are a favourite in our household.
