How to make oatmeal taste good without fruit?

Many of us grew up eating oatmeal with just a bit of brown sugar, butter, and milk.

It’s also possible to make a simple savory oatmeal by adding some white pepper, garlic, and a pinch of salt to go along with the vegan butter and milk.

Speaking of savory oatmeal… If you don’t want fruit or are out, you can make your morning oats savory instead by adding ingredients like nutritional yeast, garlic, onions, spinach leaves, cherry tomatoes, black beans, and other ingredients.
