If you have a Keurig machine sitting on your kitchen counter, chances are that it’s the first thing you reach for in the morning. Keurigs are quite possibly one of the most convenient appliances out there, but did you know that they can be used for so much more than just making coffee? Here are 6 surprising ways to use your Keurig machine that you probably never knew about.
1. Instant Baby Food
If you want to warm a bottle without using the microwave, just use your Keurig to brew a cup of hot water in a mug, then place the bottle in the mug until the formula is warm. You can also use your Keurig to make instant baby oatmeal, baby rice, and other baby-friendly foods.
2. Instant Adult Food
Keurigs aren’t just useful for preparing baby food! Stick some oats in a mug, then brew a cup of water to make instant oatmeal. You can use this method for practically any instant meal that requires hot water (hello, Mr. Noodles!).
3. Speciality Drinks
You don’t need to drop a ton of money on special pods to make your own specialty hot beverages. Just add a tea bag, hot chocolate mix, or any other drink powder to a mug (matcha powder, anyone?) and brew a cup of water.
4. Pasta

5. Affogato
Have you ever heard of this Italian dessert? All you need to do to make this yummy treat is place a scoop or two of ice cream in a mug, then brew a cup of your favorite coffee. When the coffee mixes with the ice cream, it melts and becomes a delicious, caffeinated treat!
6. Iced Drinks
Sometimes, a hot coffee is the last thing you want on a stifling day. To enjoy your caffeine kick without the heat, simply brew your favorite K cup over ice instead! Between iced tea, iced coffee, and iced lattes, the possibilities are practically endless.
