Make these recipes and throwback to your childhood, running in from the backyard and following your nose to the smells of sweet baked treats. These classic Australian recipes are just the thing to bake for Australia Day, and they'll be welcome at any barbecue or get-together!

Pink Jelly Cakes

Who else remembers making little cakes dipped in jelly? This version is sandwiched with jam and cream filling to make it that much more tempting. This basic vanilla cake can also be used to make the Vanilla Layer Cake below.

Vanilla Layer Cake with Passionfruit Curd

Light and spongy vanilla cake layered with lashings of cream and tropical curd, all the flavours of an Aussie summer. It doesn't get much better than that.

Anzac Caramel Slice

The combination of the Anzac biscuit base and golden caramel is divine, and the dark chocolate on top is the perfect way to balance out the sweetness.

Anzac Apple and Blueberry Crumble

If you're having a dinner get-together for Australia Day, you can't go past this crumble. Use your favourite fruits and berries.

Traditional Anzac Biscuits

Quintessentially Australian, these Anzac biscuits are full of the golden syrup, coconut and oat flavour that you grew up with.

Raspberry Coconut Slice

A square of this slice will make anyone's day. The crumbly base, tangy raspberry jam and crisp coconut, all you need to go with it is a cuppa and the sound of cicadas singing in the background.

Melting Moments

Melt-in-your-mouth biscuits with orange cream and jam. It's easy to customise the cream flavour with lemon, or have it plain instead.
