Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound ground beef
- 0.5 cup breadcrumbs
- 0.33 cup milk
- 1 large egg
- 0.5 cup yellow onion, finely diced
- 0.25 cup ketchup
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.33 cup ketchup (for topping)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and lightly grease a standard muffin tin.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, breadcrumbs, milk, egg, diced onion, ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper.
Use your hands or a spoon to mix the ingredients until well combined, but avoid overmixing to keep the meat loaves tender.
Divide the meat mixture evenly among the muffin tin cups, filling each cup to the top and smoothing the surface.
Top each mini meat loaf with a spoonful of ketchup, spreading it evenly over the surface with the back of a spoon.
Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the meat loaves are cooked through and reach an internal temperature of 160°F (71°C).
Let the mini meat loaves rest for 5 minutes before carefully removing them from the muffin tin. Serve warm with your favorite sides, such as mashed potatoes or steamed vegetables.
