In my opinion oatmeal is better as a spicy-savory rather than a sweet dish. You could add black pepper and a bit of salt to it and maybe a hot sauce for even more flavor. Montreal steak spice also works well.

Could take it to the next level with green peas, diced carrots and other things.

In fact once you go savory, you'll never go back. Sweet oatmeal grosses me out.

look up upma, a semolina based indian breakfast dish that can be adapted to oats pretty easily.
