While many recipes are sure to help you bake the Aussie and New Zealand classic, Mudgee CWA Evening's Barbara Gow has shared her mother's recipe.
"I have made lots of Anzac biscuits over the years as they are delicious and keep well, if you have not eaten them all. They also freeze well, good for lunch boxes," Barbara said.

Mudgee's CWA Evening ladies will be selling homemade Anzac biscuits and homecrafted poppies for $5.00 each on the day.
The group's table will be set up at the corner of Perry and Market Street in Robertson Park.
The ladies will also be walking around with baskets selling the above, with all money raised to go to the Legacy Mudgee Widows.
Poppies can also be purchased at the Mudgee Newsagency.
