    Old fashioned oats with cinnamon and raisins. The raisins are all the sweetened it needs for me.

    I add a handful of frozen raspberries or blueberries just as the end of cooking and it tastes like jam lumps, I love it. Also, I'll throw in a little flax or hemp hearts for protein and for a nutty flavour.

    I usually add cinnamon, ground flax, sliced banana (or other fruit), a spoonful of almond butter, and a bit of almond milk. Occasionally I will add half a scoop of whey protein.

    I always start my day with porridge made with almond milk + chopped banana. It's delicious! That combined with several cups of tea and a boiled egg sets me up for the morning. :)

    After cooking it - I put some splenda, cinnamon and a dash of skim milk! I have just started using the old fashioned oats instead of the instant and I am in love!

    I have 'healthy' porridge and 'treat' porridge!
    Regular: ripe banana (melts in the microwave), almond milk, a few prunes, flaked almonds and a drizzle of honey
    Best porridge ever: ripe banana. Skim milk, Couple of spoons of nuttella, chocolate nesquik powder, broken up walnuts

    I eat steel cut oats and stir in a drizzle of agave nectar and then top with shredded unsweetened coconut and chopped mango (the little yellow ones. i don't like the reddish/green ones at much). DE-LISH!

    I think traditionally you would boil it in a pan until the oats have soaked up all the fluid and it has a creamy texture. I can't stand the stuff made with water though, fair play to you!

    Ah, I guess the oats become more bloated and softer? Mine's like a thick mushy muesli. Feels like I'm eating something with substance. :o)

    It's a whole different animal. My granny used to say you know good porridge if you can spin it around in the bowl!



    (She would soak hers overnight, and when it hits the cold bowl it solidifies. You could tip it upside down and it would be the same shape! But it was delicious, soft and glutinous in texture. Pour in a little cold milk and you could whirl it around in there like a spinning top.

    Traditionally you would have had two separate bowls, one with porridge and the the other with milk. Dip your spoon into one then the other. I have no idea why..)
