    I don't handle oatmeal well, which is a real shame because I really wanted to try it in Scotland. They serve it with brown sugar and whisky.

    My kids like it with coconut oil, berries or bananas, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and a little brown sugar....or chocolate chips. Then, they have a lityle milk poured over it like hot cereal. Personally, I gag on oatmeal. I hate it, except in cookies. I found baked oatmeal to be a LOT tastier than the ploppy goop my kids eat. It's more cake like.

    Good luck!

    I used to eat oatmeal everyday for a long time and then I got VERY sick of it. Just the thought made me want to throw up. And then, just this year, I tried this whole "overnight oats" craze. LOVE IT! Cold oatmeal!!!! I know people probably still warm it, but I really enjoy it cold. You might too :)

    I am blown away at the many different ways to eat oatmeal. I have the 1 minute oats from Quaker. Where would I find steel cut?

    sometimes they call it "irish oats" ... rather than the flat rolled oats appearance typical of 1-minute oatmeal, looks more like tiny rice granules.

    I love oatmeal and eat almost everyday in many diffferent combinations. I love it with coconut milk and a bit of shredded unsweetened coconut for example, or with fresh strawberries and a tbsp of dark chocolate chips.

    Recently I found this recipe and has become my favorite so far:

    Brownie Batter Overnight Protein Oatmeal

    Overnight oats are awesome. There are so many recipes out there and some of them can be sweet enough for a healthy desert.

    Butter and peanut butter both strike me as strange additions to porridge. I like it with brown sugar, and if I'm pushing the boat out, cinnamon, sultanas and dark chocolate. I prefer it made with milk but if I'm making it for everyone I have to use water.

    This is because Mr Garage is a purist. WATER AND SALT.

    I mix yogurt and fruit in to my oatmeal after it is cooked. That way you leave Mr. Purist's portion alone and you can enjoy yours any way you like.

    I am attempting to eat mine this morning and struggling...

    I have some blueberries, cinnamon, and butter. It's not good. In any way.

    What is a way to make it better, while keeping it healthy?

    I add jaggery almonds raisins flax seeds milk in oats. Sometimes I add banana too

    I eat it with sweetener and cinnamon, usually with an omelet and bacon on the side.

    I put protein powder in mine and bake them into little "cakes". Very nice and filling.

    I make porridge with mine (I'm Scottish). I cook them either in milk or water, add a pinch of salt and some cinnamon. I serve with a little full fat milk and honey drizzled over.
