These peanut butter lactation cookies are delicious and are so simple to make. The batch yields about 12-15 cookies and are good for up to 3 days at room temperature (in an air tight container). Once cool, I break each cookie in half. I then eat half a cookie after each feeding to get the ball rolling for the next feeding or pumping session. The ingredients are simple:
- Peanut butter
- Sweetener of choice (I use monk fruit since its lower in the glycemic index than sugar)
- An egg
- Brewers Yeast (make sure it’s DEBITTERED)
