So we are going to kick off my return from “maternity leave” with something super delicious that every new mom should have – Lactation Cookies! Now don’t get the wrong idea here. These cookies are just delicious cookies filled with healthy ingredients like oats, flax seed and brewers yeast, all which help increase milk supply.
They will not actually cause you to start leaking milk everywhere if you aren’t already making it (someone, who shall remain nameless was worried).
But if you feel like you should legally change your name to Bessie, these cookies are a great snack for you (and you can eat them with one hand!)
And yes, they are perfectly safe for your husband and 3 year old daughter to eat, too.
And please note that I said these cookies have healthy ingredients, but they aren’t exactly healthy themselves. But they are delicious. Just make sure you share (or freeze) some, or you will be in those maternity pants longer than you care to admit…
Food tastes better when its shared! If you try this recipe, let me know! Leave a comment and rate below!

Hi,
Thanks for the introducing a new concept about how to increase or to produce breast milk. It’s also good for the 3 year old baby child. Lots of ingredients are used to make Lactation Cookies and no harmful things are used. It’s safe for both the mother and child.
