Pretty much any dried fruit will go well. I had some leftover dried cranberries from Thanksgiving not too long ago, and they were awesome. Just put them in when the water goes in the pot, that way they can soak up a bit of moisture before things get cooking. Outside of that, you can't go wrong with cinnamon and maple syrup. Also, I like to put a little bit of dried cereal in once I have the oatmeal in the bowl. I usually go with bran flakes. Just a little variation of texture.
Oh! And Apple Sauce! I made apple sauce not too long ago from apples from my grandmother's tree. Had a little lemon zest, and that was amazing in Oatmeal.
