Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pounds ground beef (80/20 or 85/15)
- 1 medium onion, finely chopped
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 cup breadcrumbs
- 0.5 cup milk
- 1 large egg
- 0.25 cup ketchup
- 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- 0.75 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.5 cup cheddar cheese, shredded (optional, for topping)
- 0.5 cup additional ketchup (optional, for topping)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease a muffin tin if you’d like to use it for uniform mini meatloaf portions.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, chopped onion, minced garlic, breadcrumbs, milk, egg, ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, Italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper.
Use clean hands or a sturdy spoon to mix the ingredients thoroughly until well blended, being careful not to overmix to keep the meatloaves tender.
Divide the mixture into 6 equal portions. Shape each portion into a mini loaf or press into muffin tin cavities for a more compact shape.
If desired, spread a small amount of additional ketchup on top of each mini meatloaf or sprinkle with shredded cheddar cheese for a savory topping.
Place the mini meatloaves onto the prepared baking sheet (or leave in the muffin tin) with space between each for even cooking.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes, or until the internal temperature of the meatloaves reaches 160°F (71°C).
For freezing (OAMC): Allow the mini meatloaves to cool completely, wrap each in plastic wrap or foil, and store in a resealable freezer bag. To reheat, thaw in the refrigerator overnight, then bake at 375°F (190°C) for 10-15 minutes, or microwave until heated through.
Serve the mini meatloaves warm with your favorite sides such as mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or a fresh salad. Enjoy!
