Breastfeeding<br />

Lactation Cookies<br />

BY MEGHAN RATLIFF<br />

BY EMILY FORSYTHE<br />

DESPERATE TO INCREASE YOUR<br />

MILK SUPPLY? Looking for a<br />

high-fiber snack to curb your midnursing<br />

cravings? These refined<br />

sugar-free lactation cookies<br />

re great to have on hand,<br />

especially in those first few weeks<br />

and months postpartum. Packed<br />

with wholesome ingredients such<br />

as oats and ground flaxseed, these<br />

lactation cookies are great for<br />

boosting milk supply and keeping<br />

mom full between meals. They<br />

also contain brewer’s yeast, which<br />

is a nutritional supplement said<br />

to increase milk supply—it does<br />

have a bitter taste so it’s used<br />

sparingly here. This version calls<br />

for white chocolate chips and<br />

raisins, which help to mask<br />

the bitterness of the yeast, but<br />

feel free to substitute dark or<br />

semi-sweet chocolate.<br />
