    I put:
    - 2-3 teaspoons of brown sugar in it, bananas, and raisins.
    or
    - Dice an apple and put a little bit of water in a bowl (VERY little). Season the apples with Cinnamon, Nutmeg, etc. Microwave apples for 2-3 minutes until tender. Then put the apples in the oatmeal with 2-3 teaspoons of brown sugar.
    or
    - Put Libby's 100% Canned pumpkin in it with cinnamon, nutmeg, and 2-3 teaspoons of brown sugar.

    Try these. There was a muffin you can make in the microwave with an egg, berries and oatmeal that I really need to try. It sounds great!

    I make mine with fat free milk instead of water, add honey and cinnamon and sometimes chop up and apple and throw it in when I am cooking it!

    look on line for "amish" or baked oatmeal recipes. I cut the brown sugar and butter (or oil) to a minimum. I make a big batch once a week and re-heat it in the micro. I switch up the add-ins...nuts, dried fruit, chocolate chips, coconut, etc. SOOOOOO good!

    I LOVE my oatmeal! I use 1/4 cup quick oats, 1/2 Almond Breeze Unsweeted Vanilla Almond Milk, 1 tsp brown sugar or Agave, 1/2 table spoon natural peanut butter! I microwave it for 1:30. I hope you like it!

    oh yeah, I forgot. I also put a spoon of coconut oil in my regular oatmeal. You can get it at Whole Foods or Trader Joes. It is so good for you and your metabolism. Skin too.

    diced apples + cinnamon + vanilla extract + chopped walnuts or almonds
    dried cherries + walnuts
    dried blueberries (or frozen) + almonds
    unsweetened chocolate powder + chopped almonds + vanilla extract + agave nectar
    apples + dried cranberries + almonds

    I always make it with almond milk or regular milk unless I am out.

    Also a nice addition to make your oatmeal more hearty: almond meal (it is basically ground almonds).

    I eat mine plain every day with 15 raspberries and a big huge dash of cinnamon in it. I use the raspberries as a natural sweetener.

    I have a pancreas issue, so have recently learned ways to cut out sugar. It might sound bland but I cook my oatmeal, stir in 1tsp of cinnamon and a splash of vanilla almond milk. Very yummy and only about 180 calories.
