cinnamon. Vanilla, Chocolate.

rum and raisins

butter and brown sugar

Raisins, cinnamon, nutmeg

brown sugar and raisins

I put syrup in mine.

maple syrup

Try some cinnamon, cream, and a 1/8 tsp. of vanilla extract. Also, if you have around the house, add some chopped berries to get that serving of fruit in.

syrup....brown sugar...vanilla....chocolate chips...etc

bananas and peanut butter

I love mine with salt! Cook all the liquid out and add extra salt, yummy ~ I do not like sweet in my oatmeal unless it's an unbaked chocolate oatmeal cookie

Any combination you like of:
brown sugar
cinamon
cream or whole milk
maple syrup (or another flavor like blueberry or boysenberry syrup)
dash of vanilla
hot apples (warmed in brown sugar & cinnamon)
raisins
Craisins (dried cranberries)
Any dried fruit (dried apples, apricots, cherries, etc)

I put in brown sugar and cheerios its really good.
Others are:
-cinnamon
-butter
-raisins or dried cranberries
-sugar
-chocolate chips
Use your imagination. All these are pretty good though

try bananas or strawberry's or even apples. any kind of fruit then if you want it sweet you could add a little sugar or brown sugar and cinnamon.

Cinnamon is my favorite.

I like to put in Syrup and Brown sugar and a dash of cinnamon.

Some other ideas are fruit or chocolate chips.

Be creative!

We put in some chopped fresh fruit like apple, pear, or peach. Then we top with Sour Wood Honey, Cinnamon, and cream.

Yum-mo.

.

butter and brown sugar will make it butterscotchie in taste, you can add cinnamon to that as well. Add a little vanilla, maple flavoring or maple syrup. You can add canned pie filling fruit of your choice, apple and cherrie are good you could use blueberry as well. Use your imagination.

My favorites to add are:

- 2 T. all-natural peanut butter (like Smuckers)
- dried fruit, especially a mixture of cherries, blueberries and cranberries
- 1/2 tsp cinnamon with 1/4 tsp vanilla
- 2 T. raisins with 1/2 tsp cinnamon
- Sweetened, condensed milk (like Eagle Brand) with cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves and ginger (tastes like Chai Tea)
