Flour-less Peanut Butter Cookies (With Steel Cut Oats)

 I love a good cookie recipe.  Seeing as how this one was a healthier alternative to a tradition peanut butter cookie, I had to try it.  These are filling!  The steel cut oats make it more nutty alongside the peanut butter and you get a nice chewy, crumbly texture.  I am in love!
