Nothing, because I am lazy, but if we have it, maple syrup.
But this would be a good place to use local honey!

I've used honey, brown sugar, or fruit. Now I just use vanilla almond milk so there's no need for any sweetener.

I used the creamed honey I mentioned buying in my other thread this morning and it was HEAVEN! I also like blueberries, brown sugar, and cinnamon.

If I'm not using some instant oatmeal, I sweeten it with brown sugar (and don't forget the butter!).

I used to use honey, but I switched to just cinnamon since it's a little healthier! I almost always throw fruit in too, like banana or dried cranberries

I don't sweeten is anymore but my grandmother used to make it for me using brown sugar to sweeten it and I loved it. Maybe I should do that again soon.

Brown sugar, or chocolate chips if I'm feeling daring.
Oftentimes just adding 1/2 a banana is good enough for me
