Bonjour Mamans,
Let’s talk milk! One of the many miracles we come to learn about ourselves during this journey in motherhood is that we are able to produce all that our babies need and for some of us that means breastmilk. Like many things, our milk supply fluctuates by outside effects such as stress, lack of sleep, caffeine intake and hormone changes. I don't know about you, but as a new mama myself I have all of those stressors and can always use a helping hand in keeping my milk supply up.
If you've been scouring the internet for the perfect lactation cookie recipe, search no more! We’ve compiled a list of our top 4 favorite lactation cookie recipes created, tried and vetted by moms for moms like you!
Lactation Cookies: Oatmeal Chocolate Chip. This recipe, by@bunsenburnerbakery is our Chief Maman and Founders favorite andgo-to for all of her lactation needs. In order to make the recipe a little healthier, Marjorie used coconut flour in place ofall-purpose flour and rather than using sugar she opted for honey and fresh mashed bananas.

Emergency Brownies Milky Mama is a company founded by a registered nurse and breastfeeding mama of two. She offers freshly baked lactation treats, like her cookies that come in 5 different flavors, brownies and drinks. You’re also able to purchase cookie mix so you can bake the cookies right at home. I’ve personally tried the Emergency Brownie and it was a lifesaver when my milk supply dipped. The brownie was moist, rich and almost made me forget that it was a lactation supplement. Milky Mamas baked goods are freshly made to order and ship out pretty quickly. Her treats freeze very well too so if you feel like splurging and want to try a couple different things you can always stock up your freezer for future milk emergencies.

You can order them online from the MilkMakers website or find them at your local Target with the breast pump supplies.
