Lactation Cookies – Fall Themed Almond

Lactation Cookies – Fall Themed Almond

Disclaimer: I am not a doctor nor lactation specialist. This cookie recipe was created based on different online sources which discussed food that could possibly increase your breast milk production. I felt like these cookies – along with a healthy diet and exercise – made me feel better about my production. However, as they are not the only factor, and are probably only contributing in a minor capacity, and might just be my excuse to eat cookies! Recipe modified from…

Faux Sourdough Chocolate Cookies

Faux Sourdough Chocolate Cookies

[Jump to Recipe] Last year for National Chocolate Chip Cookie Day I posted this Sourdough Chocolate Chip Cookie recipe. This recipe is great, IF you have sourdough starter lying around. But what do you do, a friend asked me, if you don’t? Can you recreate a similar flavor profile and texture to those cookies without it? Yes you can and the secret is yogurt! Yogurt gives a nice tang to the recipe and, according to Matt and Lentil over on…

As a result I decided to come…

Veganized Holiday Nutmeg Cookies

Veganized Holiday Nutmeg Cookies

[Jump to Recipe] I am a sucker for old cookbooks. Well not just cookbooks, also old gardening, house, picture, or etiquette books too; any book that contains old knowledge. Anytime I go to a garage or estate sale I always make a b-line to the shelves. I picked up The French Chef in Private American Families by Xavier Raskin, published in 1922, in a used book store a couple years ago for $10 and I am so happy I did….

Sourdough Chocolate Chip Cookies and a Cookie Lesson

Sourdough Chocolate Chip Cookies and a Cookie Lesson

[Jump to Recipe] Happy National Chocolate Chip Cookie day! But really who needs an excuse to make chocolate chip cookies? This post began about a month ago as I set out to make a chocolate chip cookie that was not super sweet, decently healthy, used my extra sourdough starter, and kept its shape pretty well. In other words, the perfect hiking and biking snack! The previous batches of cookies I had not photographed the process, just the end product. Rookie…
