What's in your Oatmeal?

I love butter and sugar in mine, but need a healthier way to eat it!
Do you make it with water or milk or ??
What do you put in it?

I cook it with water, and add 1 tablespoon of peanut butter for protein, blueberries (fresh or frozen), a small amount of chopped walnuts, and soy milk. I have this every day, it's yummy and keeps me going for most of the morning, even after I've exercised.

I love having mine with dried blueberries from Trader Joe's (they add sweetness and texture), some fresh blueberries, almonds, and milk. I look forward to it every morning! (Rather than make it in the microwave, I boil water in a kettle and pour the boiling water on the oatmeal--it's ready in 30 seconds. For whatever reason, it tastes much better!)

I make a mix of rolled oats and 7 Grain with flax seed cereal. I add in a tsp of brown sugar, a tablespoon of raisins, and a sprinkle of cinnamon. I cook it with water and eat it that way. Lately I have been adding a splash of almond milk.

OH GOSH YES AN OATMEAL THREAD

My favourite is made with water, then I layer on some banana slices, natural peanut butter, flax seeds, and cinnamon, then drizzle maple syrup over the whole thing. It is heaven

AyaKara

I use 1 cup of water, a scoop of protein powder & a 2-3 teaspoons of cinnamon. Then, I put in banana slices & mash them. I mix it up. Then I top it off with raisins & mix it in. It's my favorite part of the day!

My mom personally does cinnamon & blueberries. I've also done apples with cinnamon. Try it!

I make mine with water... I add 1 TBSP of brown sugar, a pinch or 2 of cinnamon, and either pineapple chunks or peach slices. It's freakishly delicious

LoveAlwaysAlisa

I eat mine with 1 tbs butter, some cinnamon, and a packet of sweetener (made with water)....it's my go to breakfast with light orange juice and maybe some turkey sausage or bacon .

I tend to cook about 1/2 a cup of oats in a combination of one cup almond milk/one cup water. With that as the base, I've put everything from fresh fruit to mini marshmallows and a spoonful of chocolate chips into the pot. Homemade oatmeal's become a staple in my breakfast options, now.

I cook mine with water, and put brown sugar, and honey...sometimes nuts and a small amount of milk on it.

I use water. I can never get it right with milk when I try it comes out too runny. The best with chocolate chips banana or honey is good too.

Cinnamon and oven baked apple slices

I like to cook mine in unsweetened vanilla almond milk (30 calories per cup), use steel cut oats and use water to make it thin. After it's cooked, I add 1 TBSP each milled flax seed, chia seed, and some chopped raw almonds. Delish!

umachanxo

I mush up a banana into water and mix it if it's instant oatmeal. Then I add some fresh berries like blueberries or strawberries.

What do you put in it?

I cook it with half milk and half water and then I put a dollop of butter and a handful of walnuts or pecans in it and cinnamon and nutmeg. Sometimes I will grate part of an apple into it.

I usually use the little portion control packages...but Ive noticed that some have lots of sugar and usually dont keep me satified for long :-(
