Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 lb Ground beef
- 0.5 cup Breadcrumbs
- 1 large Egg
- 0.25 cup Milk
- 0.25 cup Ketchup
- 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
- 0.5 cup Yellow onion, finely diced
- 2 cloves Garlic cloves, minced
- 1 tsp Salt
- 0.5 tsp Black pepper
- 0.5 tsp Italian seasoning
- 0.25 cup Ketchup (for glaze)
- 1 tbsp Brown sugar
- 1 tsp Prepared mustard
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, breadcrumbs, egg, milk, ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, diced onion, minced garlic, salt, black pepper, and Italian seasoning. Mix gently but thoroughly until all ingredients are evenly incorporated.
Divide the mixture into four equal portions and shape each portion into a mini loaf about the size of your palm. Place the mini loaves on the prepared baking sheet, leaving enough space between them for even cooking.
In a small bowl, whisk together the ketchup, brown sugar, and prepared mustard. This will serve as your glaze.
Brush the glaze evenly over the tops of the mini meatloaves using a spoon or pastry brush.
Bake the meatloaves in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the internal temperature of the loaves reaches 160°F (71°C).
Once cooked, remove the meatloaves from the oven and let them rest for 5 minutes before serving.
Serve the mini meatloaves with your favorite side dishes, such as mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or a fresh green salad. Enjoy!
