    Whatever you like! I make mine with almond milk as I prefer the taste.

    As for toppings, I mix and match these depending on what I feel like:

    just plain sweetener
    honey
    bananas
    nuts
    blueberries
    chocolate drops
    peanut butter,
  • Ooh okay thanks! If I mix it with peanut butter, do I mix it with the porridge first before I put it in the microwave so it melts a bit?

    Cinnamon is nice. I make porridge with just skimmed milk and sometimes have a banana sliced on top and a bit of dark brown sugar.

    Isn't Oats So Simple just porridge oats in packets? Much much cheaper to buy a "normal" bag/box of oats and weigh them yourself (I digress..)

    I normally add it after and stir it in, but I should imagine either way is fine.

  • I make a half a cup of oatmeal and about 1 cup of mixed fruit whatever I had in the house mostly a quarter of apple a few blueberries, blackberries strawberry's and a quarter of a pear with 1 package of sweetener and cinnamon and filled me up.
  • I just Buy the quicker oats in a bag and I make it myself, I find it more filling than the packs.
