Lactation Recipes:

     Peanut Butter Bars
          Preheat oven to 350
          1/2 c melted butter
          1/2 c white sugar
          1/2 c brown sugar
          1/2 c creamy peanut butter
          1 egg
          1 Tbsp vanilla

          Mix those ingredients together until smooth and creamy.

          1c (minus 4 Tbsp) flour
          4 Tbsp brewer's yeast
           3/4 tsp baking soda
          1/2 c oats
          1/4 tsp salt

          Sift those ingredients and add to wet ingredients.

          Smooth into a buttered 9x13 baking sheet. sprinkle on 1 cup
          chocolate chips and press in lightly.   Cook for 18-22 minutes (I
          cooked mine for 18 and they were chewy and delicious!)

         Note: I'm sure you could replace butter with coconut oil but when I substitute I always use about 1/4 less oil than butter, so maybe 1/3 or 3/8 c oil instead of 1/2 c butter.
