what do you do to spice up oatmeal (ingredients, pancake, brown sugar)

[nickerman]

By spice up I mean making it tastier. It is sort of bland sometimes which is normal for oatmeal, I think.
What about cranberries? Can one buy frozen cranberries and put them in the oatmeal as the oatmeal is warming up? Any other suggestions.

I tried adding pumpkin once and chocolate another time. Hated it.

I love it with chopped pecans and diced dried fruits, usually apricots.

I like brown sugar and cinnamon. Lately, I use frozen blueberries (which are thawed). Sliced banana is also good. I also like oatmeal on the creamier side, it tastes better to me that way. Therefore, I cook it with nonfat milk instead of water.

Cinnamon, raisins, sweetener, and served with a pat of butter on top. Also oddly enough a pinch of salt added near the end of cooking rolled oats improves it more than you'd think, if added together with the other ingredients.

Pecans or walnuts for special occasions.

Cinnamon and Splenda.
