So, I have decided to switch to eating plain oatmeal.....any suggestions on what to put in it?

I absolutely LOVE oatmeal butterscotch cookies and thought that maybe putting a sprinkle of the SF/FF butterscotch pudding mix in it would be good....haven't tried it yet but will report back when I do!

    i cant handle plain oatmeal, so im always adding stuff to it lol
    umm my most recent love is cocoa powder, a packet or two of stevia, and some shredded cococnut. tastes like a no bake cookie :D
    i also like putting different flavored protein powders in..
    craisins or raisins with cinnamon sugar.

    berries of any kind, a dash of cinnamon, raisins (I love them but they're a little high in sugars)

    I cut up half a banana in mine or sprinkle a bit of "Pumpkin Pie" spices and nutmeg.

    Sometimes I'll put flax seeds in it with a drizzle of local honey (for allergies).


    And I love it plain too - oatmeal rocks!

    One teaspoon of pure maple syrup. Just gives it a little extra flavor. Yum!

    I have toasted steel cut oatmeal at least 4-5 mornings a week. Has a little bit of brown sugar (the only actual processed sugar I consume all day), dried cranberries, golden raisins, and cherries. Yummy and comforting.

    I cook mine in a crockpot w/almond milk, add golden raisins, & sweeten w/ a little maple syrup. Tastes like bread pudding, & is great without the syrup, too.

    My go-to is 1/3 cup dry oats, two scoops of vegan protein powder, cocoa powder, two tablespoons of flax seeds and one tablespoon of peanut butter. Delicious and soooo filling.

    It is great on its own, but if you want some ideas here is a link to the world porridge making championship held in Carrbridge, Scotland.
