Lactation cookie recipes?

Hi everyone,
My friend had a baby 2 weeks ago and she is having trouble with supply - baby isn't gaining but thankfully isn't losing which is good.  I was thinking of bringing her lactation cookies but when I tried looking up recipes I became very overwhelmed with the choices available so I thought I would see if anyone here has recipes.  I only breastfed/pumped for 2 weeks so I don't even know what I would look for within the recipes.

Thanks everyone for your help!

  • I believe that Brewer's yeast and oatmeal are the ingredients that are supposed to help with supply. Any recipe that includes those 2 should be fine.

  • Someone made me cookies with oatmeal and flax seed. My supply was good anyways so I don't know if it helped.  I eat oatmeal a lot anyways.  Another tip for your friend is try lots of skin to skin and baby wearing.
