Description

These mini meatloaves are perfect for individual servings and cook faster than traditional meatloaf. Packed with savory flavors and topped with a tangy glaze, they make a delicious and comforting meal.


Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 1 lb ground beef
  • 1/2 cup breadcrumbs
  • 1/4 cup milk
  • 1 egg
  • 1/4 cup chopped onion
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 2 tbsp ketchup
  • 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese (optional)
  • 1/4 cup ketchup (for topping)
  • 1 tbsp brown sugar (for topping)
  • 1 tsp mustard (for topping)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a muffin tin or line with muffin liners.
  2. In a large bowl, combine ground beef, breadcrumbs, milk, egg, onion, garlic, ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, salt, pepper, and cheese (if using). Mix until just combined.
  3. Divide the mixture evenly into 8 muffin cups, pressing down lightly.
  4. In a small bowl, mix 1/4 cup ketchup, brown sugar, and mustard. Spoon over each mini meatloaf.
  5. Bake for 25–30 minutes or until internal temperature reaches 160°F (71°C).
  6. Let rest for 5 minutes before serving.

Notes

  • You can use ground turkey or chicken instead of beef for a lighter option.
  • Add finely chopped veggies like carrots or bell peppers for extra nutrition.
  • Leftovers can be stored in the fridge for up to 3 days or frozen for longer storage.
