Some of these sound good! I might see if cinnamon makes mine even more gorgeous.

Straightforward cook in slightly salted water with milk atop (or cream if I happen to have any) and bingo! Lovely. However, some concoctions here have decided appeal so I may push the boat out some day. On the other hand laziness and speed may take over as I'm not much of a kitchen dweller these days.

Make mine with water, then add Greek yoghurt, a banana, or raspberries, and a drizzle of skinny Maple syrup. In winter grated apple or pear and cinnamon. Delicious.

Whiff that sounds lovely. I make mine with skim milk, and a dash of orange essence or vanilla essence, then pour a little milk on it when it’s in the bowl, add a sprinkle of brown sugar, and some chopped bananas and voila!

I like it with Greek yoghurt and raspberries. Other fruit when I’ve no raspberries. Sometimes I replace the yoghurt with Creme Fraiche.

I have it with blueberries sweetener greek yoghurt and cinnamon.
But my favourite is with honey and fresh cream poured over it.

I don't really like it but in Winter I might have an instant one with honey if I am off to golf on a cold morning.

I make mine using unsweetened coconut milk it's sweet enough I don't need any honey with it. Also low calorie.

My daughter loves hers with peanut butter, but my perfect porridge comes with hot apricot purée, topped with Greek yoghurt and a dash of honey. It is delicious and I look forward to it every morning. Does anyone else have a perfect porridge?
