Yes, you read that right! You can actually JUSTIFY cookies! Well, like an nursing mother CAN’T justify them. But seriously, these can help with milk production – and my friends say they are quite yummy to boot! (Remember: me = overproduction … me + a dozen of these would probably = engorgement)

Why cookies? Well, just any cookie isn’t going to work. Sorry ladies, that box of Thin Mints in the freezer cannot be applied to this excuse. The kind of cookies I am talking about are “Lactation Cookies”. Creative title, no? But there is actually a science behind them.

As you look through the collection of cookies below, you’ll see a common set of ingredients between them. Brewers yeast, wheat germ, whole oats, and flax seed are just a few. These ingredients are believed to help increase your milk supply! Reading through the blogs and websites of each pin, a lot of the moms believe it helped them. And guess what, you can even mix some fenugreek in for good measure!

There are plenty of variations, even muffins! Browse through the board and see what looks yummy. Butterscotch? Pumpkin Seed? Chocolate chip? What are you waiting for?! Get baking!
