How do I recover the stock Samsung Keyboard?

I rooted my Samsung Galaxy S7 using this method: galaxys7root(dot)com/galaxy-s7-s7-edge-root/how-to-root-attt-mobilesprintverizon-galaxy-s7s7-edge (it won't let me post the link since I'm new). It worked flawlessly. While I was restoring old apps I accidentally installed Google Keyboard, the stock keyboard from my old Turbo. I installed a root uninstaller to clear the bloatware of the phone, and instead of installing the Google Keyboard, I had a brain fart and uninstalled Samsung Keyboard. I tried using an apk I got from my fiancee's S7 but it would just crash over and over whenever it was enabled. I tried digging in and clearing it completely out from the system files, then resinstall it altogether, but the package installer still said it was an update and not a new installation. After "updating" I still had the same problem. So I cleared it out again and I'm using the Google Keyboard.

Is there a way to reinstall the keyboard without it crashing all the time?

Just for clarification, the system files I deleted were the input-method-1 folder and the SamsungIMEv3 folder.
