The ultimate mommy milk cookie recipe 

1 1/2 cup flour (whole wheat or regular)

1 3/4 cup of oats (not the instant one)

1 tsp baking soda 

1tsp salt

1 cup flax seed

3/4 cups of peanut butter

3 tablespoons of yeast (brewers)

1/3 cup of water

1 tsp cinnamon 

1/2 cup sugar

1/2 cup brown sugar (I used light brown)

2 tsp vanilla (you can even use almond)

2 large eggs (I used organic)

2 cups of chocolate chips

And 1 cup nuts of your choice but I didn't add that to mine

Pre heat oven to 350

Combine flour, baking soda, sienna on and salt in one bowl

In another larger bowl beat peanut butter, butter, sugar (both of em) vanilla and yeast, flax seed and water till creamy 

Mix in eggs.

Gradually beat in flour mixture from the first bowl 

Mix in chocolate chips and nuts if you opted to use nuts as well

Add oats slowly 

Make em into balls 

(We had to mix it with our hands cuz the batter was a but too tough for a whisk and I don't have a mixer)

Place balls onto baking sheet and press down a bit with a fork. 

Bake for 12 mins. 

I baked enough for a few days cuz I'll be eating two a day. And froze the other batch I didn't use for when I run out. 

Let me know if you tried it. God bless xo

That's what they will look like ;)
