Add protein to your breakfast.
Blasphemy! oatmeal has protein!
But If you want a real bulker's breakfast, have 1 cup of oatmeal mixed with 1 cup of milk. Since the oatmeal isn't cooked you can eat a lot more before becoming full, and since you have milk its also wet which helps you get it down.
Has something like 400-450 cals, 20ish grams protein, and its very low GI
one cup is a HUGE amount..
Really? If you don't cook it it's like a small bowl of cereal. Except instead of some sugar loaded cereal its oatmeal.

Oatmeal has very little protein and its incomplete protein so you have to eat it with something else to make it complete.
20 grams of protein for breakfast is way too little if you want to add muscle. Shoot for at least 30 grams and make sure you include meat, protein shakes, milk or eggs at each meal. Each day you want to eat around one gram of protein for each pound of bodyweight so eating enough at each meal is key.
Also you can add some (unsalted) trail mix to the oatmeal for good fats, and eat an orange or bannana if possible.
If you add this stuff to your breakfast, you dont need one full cup of oatmeal.

That looks ok, but u may not have the time to make all that every day and you need more fruit/vegetables.
To make it easier on yourself you might want to have 3 meals of whole foods and 2 protein shakes with some fruit or vegetables.
You can add fruit, eggs, milk, fiber supplements, peanut butter, cottage cheese etc to your shakes any time except after a workout.
