What Are the 10 Best Cereals for a Healthy Breakfast?

5. Oatmeal

Classic oatmeal has been popular for so long for good reason! It's a warm comfort on a cold morning and makes the perfect neutral background for tasty toppings like nuts, dried fruit, and spices.

Choose quick-cooking oats if you're in a hurry or let all the flavors sit and simmer with old-fashioned or steel-cut oats. There are also many varieties of packaged flavored instant oatmeal. For the healthiest choice, look for high protein, extra fiber, low-sugar, or unsweetened varieties.
