Lactation Cookies
oh saya sgt suka cookies! famous amos, coffe bean...my FB friend, Mei Hooi share this
recipe in her FB...rasa nak cuba, tp kat sini takda jual flaxseed n brewer yeast...nanti pi
penang kena cari...diorg ckp kat section organic kat carefour atau mana2 organic shop...
bila belek2 ingredients dia, mmg kebanyakannya boleh boost up our milk production...tak
sabar nak try..dah lama tak baking! sian oven ku :(
sapa2 dah try update la sedap ke tak, berkesan tak nak boost up BM...komen2 dr FB
ramai yg ckp sedap dan berkesan! dlm gambar nampak yummy kann??
Recommended "dose" :
- 4 cookies a day
Storage :
- Cookies can be store in the freezer
Note :
- Flaxseed seed and brewers yeast is suppose to be a main ingredients
on this recipe that helps to boost the breastmilk supply and it cannot
be substitute with others.
- But as I read more about this recipe, I actually found there is others
who have substitute some or part of ingredient in this recipe to
something else and yet it still give them the same "boosting" effect.
- To add on, the lactation cookies recipe above is not really that
healthy with the amount of the sugar and brown sugar used.
- This is another reason why some change this recipe here and there a
bit to make it "healthier".
- The other reason as to why part of the ingredient is changed is
because there are some people who are unable to get a constant
supply of that particular ingredient at the place where they stayed.
(ie : brewers yeast).
The Other Options On The Ingredients ~ Said to be healthier by
others
(Below is some of the option that have been tried by others. Am just
compiling these from HERE and some from elsewhere)
3. Use only 1/4 cup of white sugar, 1/4 cup of brown sugar and add 2
tablespoon of molasses.
4. Some didn't use sugar or brown sugar at all and replace it with 2 - 4
tablespoon of molasses.
6. Add ginger if the nursing mama have a slow letdown (this is not
recommended for those who have significant blood loss after birth as
ginger is a natural blood thinner).
8. Use only 1/2 cup of butter and substitute the other 1/2 with apple
sauce.
10. For those who are allergic to oats can either make the cookies
without the oats or simply substitute the oats with baby food rice
cereal and add some raisin into it
