Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 190°C and line two baking trays with baking paper. Sift flour, baking powder and salt.
  2. Place olive oil, sugar and vanilla in a large bowl and using an electric mixer or handheld blender, beat until it is smooth and creamy.
  3. Add the honey and egg and beat well.
  4. Combine the sifted dry ingredients a little at a time, alternating with the prepared a2 Platinum® toddler milk drink (if the mixture is too firm, add a few extra drops of a2 Milk® Full cream).
  5. Drop carefully from a teaspoon onto trays, press lightly with a fork tip that has been covered in a little flour and bake for around 8–10 minutes or until golden brown.
  6. Store cookies in an airtight container.
  7. Why not experiment with the kiddies and add other ingredients to the mix (e.g. 1⁄2 cup of sultana)?

Supporting Your Family's Feeding Choices

We believe breastfeeding is best to provide ideal nutrition for babies, and other important health benefits. Good nutrition for mums is important throughout pregnancy and whilst breastfeeding. However, we understand breastfeeding may not be an option for everyone. ​To support you on your feeding journey, we recommend speaking to a healthcare professional. Introducing formula either partially or exclusively may reduce breast milk supply, which isn’t easy to re-establish. It is also important to consider the social and financial impacts of formula, such as potential cost of providing formula until your baby is 12 months old. ​When using infant formula, always follow the preparation instructions carefully. Improper use can make your baby unwell. Information about our infant formula products is for educational and informational purposes only.
