Boost Your Milk Supply (and Dinner!) with These 4-Ingredient Lactation Cookies
Another mom across town needs dinner tonight? These simple lactation cookies are a win-win: a healthy treat for you (and a potential milk boost!) and a delicious, easy meal to share.
Hey Rogue Chefs! We all know weeknight dinners can be a blur. Between juggling kids, errands, and everything else, finding time to cook something truly nourishing can feel impossible. But what if you could sneak in a little extra goodness for yourself (and maybe even boost your milk supply!) while you're already in the kitchen?
T. Beaston (you might recognize her from her amazing content!) recently shared a recipe for 4-ingredient lactation cookies, and it’s seriously brilliant. It's the kind of recipe that makes you think, 'I can *actually* do this!' And the best part? It's easily doubled (or tripled!) to make extra for your neighbors, or to sell through CrownRunner.
The Recipe: Simple & Sweet (and Helpful!)
Let's break down this delightfully easy recipe. T. recommends overly ripe bananas for maximum sweetness – seriously, don't skip that step! Here's what you'll need:
- 2 Overripe Bananas
- 1 Cup Quick Oats
- ½ Tablespoon Peanut Butter (or more, to taste!)
- 3 Tablespoons Brewer’s Yeast (omit if not breastfeeding)
Instructions:
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Mash the bananas well.
- Combine mashed bananas, oats, peanut butter, and brewer’s yeast in a bowl.
- Mix until well combined.
- Drop by spoonfuls onto a baking sheet (she makes about 8 cookies this way).
- Bake for 13 minutes, or until golden brown.
Double the Recipe, Double the Love (and Income!)
This is where the Rogue Chef magic happens! You’re already making dinner – why not cook a little extra? Double (or even triple) this recipe, and you’ve got a batch of delicious lactation cookies to share. Imagine another mom across town, exhausted and needing a little something special. You’ve just given her a treat *and* a potential boost in milk supply!
Here's the breakdown for a doubled batch:
- 4 Overripe Bananas
- 2 Cups Quick Oats
- 1 Tablespoon Peanut Butter
- 6 Tablespoons Brewer’s Yeast
Extras to keep: 2-3 dozen cookies
CrownRunner potential: $20-$50 for the doubled batch, delivered hot to a grateful mom.
Beyond the Basics: Customize & Share
T. suggests adding raisins, chocolate chips, or nuts. Get creative! Think about what your neighbors and fellow moms love. These cookies are also fantastic as freezer meals – portion them out and pop them in the freezer for a quick, easy treat later.
This isn't just about lactation cookies; it's about recognizing the value of the work you're already doing. You're a rockstar, feeding your family and keeping things running. Share that goodness with others, and let’s build a community of supportive, resourceful moms!
