@lioness I always used to make it with berries and nuts, and a very slight sprinkle of coarse sugar (I like the crunch of coarse sugar). For a while, I thought berries were giving me a problem so I started using applesauce. Sometimes I add a few drops of vanilla too. I have also sauteed apples with cinnamon and added them but applesauce is a lot easier. One night I was in the local ER for hours and hours and was so hungry. I commented to the doctor that I was going to make some oatmeal with sauteed apples and cinnamon when I got home and he was practically drooling -- he must have been hungry too.
That's about all I do generally, but some good ideas here that I think I will try. I do always add cinnamon.
