Would you believe me if I said this was my very first time making lactation cookies? Well, it was – and I am forever changed! haha
Seriously though, these cookies are so delish and easy to make.
Whether your nursing or not, the flax seed is so good for you – you’ll justify the fact that it’s a chocolate chip cookie and eat multiple a day (I do 😉 ).
Ingredients:
- 3 cups old fashioned oats
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 4 tbsp ground flax seeds
- 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 1/4 tsp cinnamon
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 2 sticks of butter, softened
- 1 1/4 cup sugar
- 1/4 cup brown sugar
- 2 eggs
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 1/2 cups chocolate chips (or a whole bag ;P )
Instructions:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees and line baking sheets with parchment paper.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine oats, flour, flax seeds, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon and salt.
- In another bowl, cream together the butter and sugars.
- Add eggs and vanilla.
- Add to the dry ingredients.
- Stir in the chocolate chips with a spatula until well distributed.
- Grab a spoon and place desired size of dough onto baking sheet.
- Bake for 8-10 minutes, until golden.
- Let cool on a wire rack and enjoy!
Let me know on Instagram if you make them 🙂 I’d love to hear what you think.
