Raisins. That's usually enough for me.0

Agave0

Banana. I cook it with the oatmeal and it gets super mushy. Some people hate the texture (almost gooey), but I really enjoy it. Eating it right now, actually!
Edit: come to think of it, I'll generally use whatever fruit I happen to have (except citrus)- apples (w/ cinnamon), strawberries, blueberries, etc. Raisins & other dried fruits are good too, especially raisins & cinnamon.0 -
I made some on Saturday...I am a sweet tooth so I used 1/2 Tbsp brown sugar, cinnamon, vanilla and then added strawberries and blueberries, it was perfect for me.0

If you happen to have a chocolate craving, try this: Cook oats & banana by whatever method you choose. After oatmeal is cooked, add in a scoop of your favorite chocolate protein powder and maybe a teaspoon of dark cocoa powder. Sooo yummy.0

Brown sugar - nomnomnom.0

I usually do cinnamon sugar and a half a pack of Stevia in the Raw if I want it a little more sweeter than usual.0

I use Stevia and cinnamon.0

This morning I had tinned pears in fruit juice on my porridge made with water, that was enough x0

chunky peanut butter and a spoon of heavy cream0

Stevia and I add PB2 because I like peanut butter, hehe.0

Honey/agave or brown sugar.0

stevia0

cinnamon, banana, and maple syrup0

Skittles, taste the rainbow
Joking, Blueberries are lovely in porridge, or a dash or honey0 -
Depends totally on my mood. Sometimes it's a packet of splenda, sometimes it's brown sugar, sometimes it sugar free maple syrup and sometimes it's honey. I may try Avage next, I have a bottle that I'm currently using for one and only one recipe and I need to find other uses...
Generally I'm eating Steel Cut oats...
Forgot I generally also add some fruit, especially if I'm making it in the crockpot overnight, then I add in some dried fruit when I throw it all in the crockpot.0 -
Stevia and cinnamon0
-
Stevia plus dried fruit & nuts: raisins, dates (be careful, lots of calories in dates), cranberries, apricots, almonds, pecans, walnuts.
Yum!0 -
I use any of these or a combination of some:
PB2
Almond milk
Peanut butter
Cinnamon
Drop of vanilla extract0 -
That is what I use to sweeten my Oat Bran or Oatmeal Protien Powder and Blueberries,It taste wonderful0
