If you have ever breastfed your baby, you will know that at times it can seem impossible to produce nearly enough milk. Even those blessed with an abundance of breastmilk can sometimes feel like they’ve been sucked dry – especially during a growth spurt!
Luckily, there is a ton of science showing that there are many supplements you can take to boost production. Plus, there are a lot of foods that you can add to your diet to try and get your body to produce more. These easy no bake lactation cookies are full of those ingredients that will help you to keep your mammaries happy!
Don’t forget to check out my Chocolate Chip Lactation Cookies!

Gather together your ingredients. The main bulk of these cookies is from oatmeal, which is known to be great for milk supply, and it’s also great for boosting energy! Milk has tons of calcium and EFA, and it also helps boost milk production. Nuts, flaxseed and brewer’s yeast are also agents for helping increase your supply!

To get started, combine your oats, chopped walnuts, flaxseed and brewer’s yeast in a mixing bowl. Set it aside.
Then, in a medium pot, heat up your milk, sugar, butter and cocoa until it comes to a rolling boil. Boil for about a minute and then add in your peanut butter and vanilla, mixing well. Dump all your wet ingredients into the dry and combine with a spoon.

Prepare a large cookie sheet with some wax paper and then spoon out your mixture in 1 TBSP portions onto the tray.

Refrigerate these morsels so they can firm up a bit, and then pop one in your mouth whenever you need a little pick-me-up!

Seriously, they couldn’t be easier, and they taste awesome. Try them yourself!

So delicious! The butter and peanut butter keep it nice and moist. I cut down the sugar by half a cup and still worked great. Thank you!

Is there anything I could substitute for oats? Quinoa flakes maybe? I can't eat oats anymore
