Lactation Cookies

Lets discuss! Did you know less than 5% of woman cannot produce enough milk for their baby. I have heard time and time again. "I have to bottle feed/supplement with formula because I am just not producing enough."

If you don't feel like you are producing enough try some homeopathic remedies to help with milk productions. My favorites are lactation cookies. You get to each a cookie and it helps you increase your milk supply. Chocolate chip nonetheless.

Lactation Cookies:
1 cup butter (can use coconut oil)
1 cup sugar
4 tablespoons water
2 tablespoons flaxseed (no substitutes)
2 tablespoons brewers yeast ( no substitutes)
2 large eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla
2 cups flour
2 teaspoon baking soda
3 cups thin cut oats
3 cups chocolate chip
Optional: peanut butter, cranberries anything, really!

Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Mix flaxseed an water together. Set aside for 3-5 minutes.

Cream butter and sugar. Add the eggs. Stir flaxseed mix into the butter mixture. Stir in vanilla. Beat until well blended.

Sift dry ingredients. Except oats and chocolate chips. Add butter mixture to dry mixture. Add the oats and then the chocolate chips.

Drop on parchment paper on baking sheet. Bake 8-12 minutes.

IMPORTANT: eat them all! Do not share. No substitutes. You can find oatmeal, flaxseed and brewer’s yeast at whole foods/ sprouts.
