Adapted from the recipe on how sweet it is
I didn't want to make a full batch in case it didn't work out - so I halved it and made some tweaks as well -
In large mixing bowl stir together:
1 1/2 cup rolled oats
1/4 cup ground flaxseed
1/4 cup wheat germ (for extra nutritional boost)
2 tbsp brewers yeast
1/2 cup flour
1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp salt
In seperate bowl beat together until fluffy:
1/4 cup butter
1/4 cup coconut oil
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup white sugar
Beat into butter just until combined:
1 egg
1 tsp vanilla
Add dry mix to batter and stir/fold until dough forms
Stir in:
1/2 cup of chopped pitted date (original recipe calls for 1/2 cup chocolate chips but I feel like dates are healthier)
Roll tablespoonfuls into balls and bake 12 min at 350F.
They turned out pretty well - not too sweet, slightly crunchy on the outside yet soft on the inside. They went great with tea.
Now my baby is still in my belly so I can't vouch for whether these cookies really help with milk supply or not - I only baked a couple and froze the rest in a log so I can just slice and bake when I need them.
