Molly Baz, known for her innovative recipes and creative flavor combinations, has recently released a new recipe that is turning heads in the lactation community. The Big Titty Cookie, designed specifically for lactating mothers, is not your average lactation cookie. It combines functional ingredients with unexpected flavors to create a treat that anyone would enjoy, regardless of their lactation status.
Baz, who is expecting her first child, sought guidance from experts in postpartum nutrition to ensure that her cookies were not only delicious but also packed with nutrients beneficial for women. The Big Titty Cookie includes galactagogues such as oats, flaxseeds, and brewer’s yeast, which are believed to increase milk supply in nursing mothers. These ingredients, along with turmeric, cinnamon, and cardamom, provide anti-inflammatory properties that are beneficial for postpartum moms.
While Baz does not make claims about the cookies’ medical effectiveness, lactation consultant Morgan Dixon notes that the nutritional benefits in galactagogues can improve the quality of breastmilk. In addition to their functional benefits, the cookies are easy to make in a home kitchen and can be baked from frozen, making them convenient for expectant parents to prepare in advance.
But function is not the only consideration Baz had in mind when creating The Big Titty Cookie. Flavor was a top priority, and Baz ensured that the cookies were not only nutritious but also delicious. The addition of sour cherry jam at the center of the cookie adds a burst of flavor that Baz describes as the highlight of the treat.
The inspiration behind The Big Titty Cookie came from Baz’s partnership with Swehl, a company that aims to modernize and de-medicalize breastfeeding through functional yet playful products. The partnership includes a billboard in Times Square and an IRL Big Titty Cookie drop in Los Angeles, where cookies will be given away for free.
Overall, Baz’s recipe for The Big Titty Cookie is a unique and flavorful take on traditional lactation cookies. With its combination of functional ingredients and unexpected flavors, it’s a treat that anyone can enjoy, whether they’re lactating or not. And with its convenient preparation and delicious taste, it’s sure to be a hit among new parents looking for a tasty and nutritious snack.
