Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Nourishing Lactation Cookies.
Step 1
Begin by preheating your oven to a cozy 350°F (175°C).
Step 2
In a small bowl, mix together flaxseed meal and water, allowing it to rest for about 5 minutes until it thickens into a gel-like consistency.
Step 3
Meanwhile, in a large mixing bowl, cream together softened butter, white sugar, and brown sugar until the mixture is smooth and fluffy, creating a delightful base for your cookies.
Step 4
Next, incorporate the egg yolks and vanilla extract into the butter mixture, beating well to ensure everything is harmoniously blended.
Step 5
Gently stir in the thickened flaxseed mixture, adding a nutritious twist.
Step 6
In a separate bowl, whisk together all-purpose flour, brewer's yeast, wheat germ, baking soda, salt, and cream of tartar, creating a dry blend that will elevate your cookies.
Step 7
Gradually combine the dry ingredients with the wet mixture, mixing just until incorporated.
Step 8
Fold in oats and chocolate chips, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the dough.
Step 9
Scoop out walnut-sized portions of dough and arrange them 2 inches apart on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, giving them room to spread.
Step 10
Bake in the preheated oven for 10 to 12 minutes, or until the edges turn a lovely golden brown.
Step 11
Once baked, let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for a minute before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 12
Now, take a moment to savor the aroma and enjoy your nourishing lactation cookies, perfect for boosting energy and delighting your taste buds!.
