A little maple syrup and brown sugar. Never heard of butter in oatmeal. This should be an interesting thread.

I only use Holly Oatmeal which is loaded with everything. I get the kind with almonds, berries, all kinds of great, healthy ingredients so I only add some ground flaxseed, Cinnamon, a drop of butter and organic honey and some skim milk at the end. I also add a handful of chopped walnuts while cooking. Delicious!

I can't start my day without old fashioned cooked oatmeal. Always the same - boring, I know! I add a small amount of sweetener, skim milk, organic blueberries and organic strawberries. I went to organic because berries are some of the most contaminated fruits in terms of pesticides, and eating them every day would really raise my exposure to those toxins.

I like Trader Joe's Multigrain Triple Berry with Flax & Chia Seeds Instant Hot Cereal (it's oatmeal). I add defrosted TJ's frozen Wild Boreal Blueberries. Healthy and quick! And tasty!

Soy butter, lots of pecans, maple syrup, and a bit of soy milk forming a moat around the bowl's inner perimeter.
