These no-bake chocolate cashew lactation cookies are naturally sweetened with dates, packed with iron-rich oats {which are known to support milk supply for most women}, and a little bit of honey. Ultimately, they are perfect energy bite for nursing moms.
Ingredients
1 c pitted medjool dates {~15}
2 c rolled oats
1 c cashew butter, drippy
½ c honey
1 tsp vanilla extract
pinch of sea salt
~40 chocolate chips {for the center of each ball}
Instructions
Place rolled oats in a high speed food processor and process on high for about one minute until you've formed oat flour.
Then, add the rest of the ingredients and process for another 1 to 2 minutes until your dough is formed. It should look and feel like cookie dough.
Using a 1 tablespoon scooper, scoop out dough and then roll between your palms to form your balls. Place a chocolate chip in the center of each ball.
Enjoy!
Notes
**Store leftovers in an air-tight container in the fridge or freezer.
