Today is National Banana Day! 🍌🍌

Celebrate the ripe way with these delicious banana spring rolls. They are super simple to make, perfect for morning or afternoon tea, and an energy snack you can have all-year-round!

PREP TIME 20 minutes
COOK TIME 20 minutes
SERVES 4

INGREDIENTS
1/2 cup caster sugar
1 tbsp ground cinnamon
8 frozen spring roll wrappers, partially thawed
4 firm ripe bananas
1 tbsp water
Olive oil cooking spray

METHOD
1. Combine sugar and cinnamon in a bowl. Place 1 spring roll wrapper onto a board, with one corner pointing towards you. Cover remaining sheets with a clean, damp tea towel.

2. Peel and trim ends off 1 banana, then cut in half crossways. Place 1 piece of banana across the corner of the wrapper closest to you. Sprinkle with a heaped teaspoon cinnamon sugar. Brush edges lightly with water. Roll up, folding in the sides to enclose the banana. Place on a tray. Cover with a clean tea towel. Repeat to make the remaining spring rolls.

3. Preheat the Air fryer to 200C. Spray the spring rolls with oil. Place 4 rolls into the Air fryer basket. Cook for 8-10 minutes or until pastry is golden. Remove to a plate. Repeat with remaining spring rolls. Sprinkle with remaining cinnamon sugar.

4. Serve warm rolls with ice-cream if desired.

Don't have an air fryer? Make these banana spring rolls by baking on a greased wire rack in 220C oven for up to 15 minutes.

They went with songs to the battle, they were young.
Straight of limb, true of eyes, steady and aglow.
They were staunch to the end against odds uncounted,
They fell with their faces to the foe.

They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old:
Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.
At the going down of the sun and in the morning,
We will remember them.

The trusty Anzac biscuit dates back to World War I and was originally known as an Anzac wafer or tile. With their long shelf life and heartiness, they were given to soldiers instead of bread.

It's possibly one of the easiest biscuits to bake. RSL Australia and veteran and Paralympian Curtis McGrath OAM PLY got together to whip up a batch recently. They've kindly shared the recipe with us. You'll need:

🍪 Plain flour
🍪 Rolled oats
🍪 Desiccated coconut
🍪 Brown sugar
🍪 Butter
🍪 Golden syrup
🍪 Hot water
🍪 Bicarb soda
