🥛 Lactation Protein Balls 💪🏻
This recipe really is for everyone (my whole family can attest!), however if you’re not currently breastfeeding I would exclude the brewers yeast. These contain traditional galactagogues, which are food, herbs or medications that increase breast milk production. In this recipe I’ve utilised rolled oats, flaxseed meal, and brewers yeast, which are common food galactagogues.
They include beautiful sources of plant-based protein, healthy fats, fibre, and omega-3s from flax and h**p seeds. The dark chocolate chips and goji berries add flair and flavour!
I usually make a double batch, eat a few and freeze most to save for my future self. I am eating 1-2 daily at the moment and they are just delicious.
🥣 Dry ingredients:
• ½ cup oats
• ⅓ cup flaxseed meal
• ¼ cup vanilla pea protein
• ¼ cup h**p seeds
• 1 tablespoon brewer’s yeast
• 1 tsp cinnamon
• ½ teaspoon salt
🍯 Wet ingredients:
• ⅓ cup honey
• 1 cup almond butter
• ⅓ cup dark chocolate chips
• ¼ cup goji berries
⚙️ Method:
1. Blitz all dry ingredients in a food processor.
2. If your honey or almond butter has solidified, gently warm up on the stovetop. Once cool add into your dry ingredient mix.
3. Stir through the dark chocolate chips and goji berries.
4. Roll into balls and store in the fridge or freezer.
