Yummy peanut butter cookies with healthy fiber from oats. They taste great for days if they last that long. I make a batch a week at the request of my three year old grandson and feel O.K. about him snacking on them. If you're going to replace the butter with coconut oil to make them casein free (which I do now) add a tablespoon or two milk replacement like almond or soy milk to get a good consistency, or else they come out too dry and crumbly.
