The softest & most delicious lactation cookies
Hey hey! So I am a mom now & have no time for long recipe introductions. Seriously breast feeding is all I have time to do, seriously! Anyways, here is a delicious lactation cookie recipe taste tested by a few of my momma friends. Oh, and also by Petey! He loves them. Tag me on Instagram if you make them @thevintagefork .
I feel like the name is still a work in progress. It is my take on a gingerbread cookie with cane syrup, but I also used oats. The oats definitely shine through, so is it an oatmeal cookie?! IDK! Leave name recs in the comments!
