I should get some Better N' Peanut butter. That stuff was amazing... I didn't think to put it in Oatmeal. Yummy!0

King Arthur Flour makes this amazing Boiled Apple Cider that's like a really tart and tangy syrup. I use it for baking and also add a drizzle to my oatmeal, along with cinnamon and walnuts. It's so good!
You can google to find it on their website.0 -
Whey protein powder, PB and Bananas = oatmeal of champions0

I use a generous amount of cinammon, plus a small amount of dried fruit (raisins, dates, dried cranberries, dried cherries, etc.), or fresh/frozen blueberries or mixed berries. I also use Splenda. I've come to love it for breakfast!0

I normally add 1-2 tsp of sugar and cinnamon but we're out right now so I've been adding cocoa powder (1/2 tsp) and it tastes really good.0

I make mine with:
1/2 cup of plain oatmeal, 1/4 cup water (or more) 1/8 cup raisins 1 small apple, a tablespoon of calorie free sugar, a sprinkle of brown sugar, and sprinkle of cinnamon, its super good!0 -
I use the instant Quaker Oats Weight Control Maple and Brown Sugar kind. It's very tasty and filling. I microwave it at work for my morning break and my coworkers think it smells like pancakes.0

Carrot Cake: plain oats, shredded carrots, raisins, cinnamon
Plain oats, strawberries & little vanilla extract or vanilla protein powder
I used to eat oats daily and got desperate for new ways to eat it. I've made it savory with salt, pepper and cheese before and it was pretty good. I tried cooking it with an egg but did not care for it.
Always add a dash of salt to plain oats, even if you make it sweet. I normally mix in a tablespoon of ground flax as well.0 -

Since you say you are up at 5 am a hint for oatmeal is to make a big pot of it at night and when cool enough put in the fridge. When you wake up all you have to do is scoop out a portion and microwave it to eat.
A lot of good toppings were mentioned. I use agave to sweeten it up a bit and always pour milk over it like cereal. My favorites to eat are:
cinnamon, agave, apples, pecans
blueberries and nuts
a Tablespoon of pumpkin puree, dried cranberries or cherries, and cinnamon or pumpkin pie spice
bananas, walnuts and cinnamon
Mango and nuts
Really the toppings are endless. I ordered some whey protein and when it arrives I plan on adding that to the oatmeal as well. Quinoa can be used in place of oatmeal if you want a change.0 -
you can cut up some fruit, add some flax seed or sprinkle cinnamon on it. Cinnamon helps with cholesterol too.:happy:0

Now that I'm reading these, I wonder if a teaspoon of Nutella would be good in my Cinnamon Roll oatmeal.....
Nutella is good in everything! I usually have raisins & a teaspoon of Nutella in my oatmeal.0 -
Peanut butter, protein powder, cocoa + Splenda0

I like to put canned peaches in juice in mine with a bit of 1% milk. I use some of the juice in place of the water to make the oatmeal.0

I eat oatmeal almost every morning. Old fashioned rolled oats cooked with almond milk. I generally add a cup of a frozen triple berry blend. No sugar because the almond milk is slightly sweet. That's my favorite. Sometimes I'll add pureed pumpkin and pumpkin pie spice. Walnuts and a bit of maple syrup just for the flavor (making it with an unsweetened nondairy milk). Fresh bananas. Fresh chopped peaches or pears. Sometimes a grated apple and cinnamon or allspice.0

I haven't tried putting almond milk in it but I might try that next time so that I don't need to put sugar in it. I normally just put brown sugar and cinnamon in mine!0 -
