Ingredients
Please note you will find a full list of ingredients and the cooking method in the recipe card below.
- Butter - I use unsalted butter for this recipe.
- Golden Syrup - Although you can substitute with Rice Malt Syrup or Honey, I do encourage you to use Golden Syrup as this helps give this slice it's classic sweet flavour and chewy texture.
- Desiccated Coconut - Shredded coconut can also be used.
- Plain Flour - Also known as All Purpose Flour.
- Rolled Oats.
- Brown Sugar
- Bicarbonate of Soda.
How to Make Anzac Slice in a Thermomix
Step 1. Pre-heat oven and line an 18 x 28cm slice tray with baking paper.
Step 2. Place the butter, golden syrup and brown sugar into your Thermomix bowl and cook until combined.
Step 3. Add the bicarbonate of soda and mix.
Step 4. Add the remaining ingredients and mix to combine.
Step 5. Transfer the mixture to the prepared slice tray. Push down using the back of a spoon or spatula to smooth the surface.
Step 6. Place the Anzac Slice into the oven and bake until golden.
Step 7. Allow the slice to cool in the baking tin before carefully transferring to bench top. Slice into pieces before placing into an airtight container to store.
Recipe Hints and Tips
- Although you can substitute with Rice Malt Syrup or Honey, I do encourage you to use Golden Syrup as this helps give this slice it's classic sweet flavour and chewy texture.
- Do not forget to add the bicarbonate of soda! If it left out the texture of the slice will be dense.
- When mixing, ensure you select the 'Reverse' function. This will stop the rolled oats from being chopped into small pieces.
- For a crunchier slice, cook for an extra 3 - 4 minutes.
- This Anzac Slice can be stored for up to 10 days at room temperature in an airtight container. It can also be frozen for up to two months.
Bicarbonate of Soda is the main raising agent in Anzac Slice and Anzac biscuits. It also helps to add moisture to the slice without making it greasy.
Although it does come down to personal preference, traditionally this slice and biscuits are meant to be crunchy.

Can you use Gluten Free flour in this & have the same result? 🤞
Rachael says
I’m not sure what on earth happened with mine but the mixture was so wet and sticky it was impossible to spread into the tin! I checked the steps 4 times over to make sure I didn’t miss anything so still unsure what happened!
Lauren Matheson says
Hi Rachael, I'm sorry to hear your slice didn't turn out. Is it possible the ingredient quantities were slightly out?
Shyanne says
Hey ladies, do you know if this receipe freezes well? Thanks!
Lucy says
It sure does!
Tiffany Demetriou says
Tastes amazing, thank you for this quick and easy way to use up oats. I used quick oats instead of Rolled as it was what I needed to use up but it browned a little too much. Not sure if it was the oats or that maybe my vzug (non steam) oven runs a little hot, anyway, I will probably reduce the time to 20 mins instead of 25 next time. Thanks again for the wonderful recipe and also for the person who advised that Golden syrup weight was actually 70 gm. Love your recipes! <3
Lucy says
Hi Tiffany, thank you so much for your lovely feedback! All ovens can be quite different so reducing the time sounds like a good plan!
Rebecca says
This is such a lovely slice.
Kids & adults loved it.
Quick prep as you don't have to shape into biscuits.
Julie says
Oh and I found the Golden syrup weighed out to 70g 🙂
Nicole says
Love this recipe. I also add in sultanas and peanuts or anything else I have leftover like chocolate chips. I do reduce the amount of brown sugar when I do this because it can be too sweet. I make it at least once a month. It’s delicious!
Julie says
Looking forward to making this recipe, I love Anzac biscuits 🙂 Regards Rebecca above, if you don't like something then move on. How rude to be so nasty in your comments when this is a free site. If you're too lazy to check the ingredients as grams the first time you make it and mark your recipe accordingly, then wash a very small number of cups, how sad a person are you.
Lauren, thank you for all the information on your site. I've only just stumbled across it and have already copied links through to my sister-in-law and daughter 🙂
Have a magical day.
Lucy says
Thank you so much for your feedback Julie - we're so glad you're enjoying the website.
Cheryl-Anne Courtney says
Great recipe. Thankyou!
Lauren Matheson says
No problem, thank you!!
Kay says
Rebecca - I understand your frustration but give people a break! They are offering us good things and FREE?
Rebecca says
Pet peeve.
When it's for a thermomix why do you have measurements over grams?? Did you just copy and paste from a normal cook book??
Thermomix has scales, it makes life easier then taking out extra washing up material.
If your going to do a recipe for a thermomix do it propley!!! Ugh turns me off using your site and wouldn't recommend as its not a KISS method. It's a pull out cups and measure everything that you shouldn't have to.
Makes me think copywriter if you can't use scales and state thermomix so you should state which book you copied this from.
Rant Over
Lucy Mathieson says
Hi Rebecca, thank you for taking the time to comment. When we started ThermoBliss we were using all of our favourite (non-Thermomix) recipes and simply converting the instructions. As we used the Thermomix more, we of course started to convert all of the ingredients to grams as well. We are also going back through and updating any of our recipes that don't have grams (this was one of the very few that hadn't been changed yet - but I have now done so). We appreciate your feedback and totally agree that Thermomix recipes should be in grams.
