Instructions
Step 1: Preheat Oven
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Lightly grease a 12-cup muffin tin.
Step 2: Prepare Meatloaf Mixture
- In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, egg, breadcrumbs, milk, onion, garlic, ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, Italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper. Mix until all ingredients are evenly combined, but be careful not to overmix, as this can make the meatloaf tough.
Step 3: Shape the Muffins
- Divide the meat mixture evenly among the muffin cups, pressing lightly to pack the mixture into each cup.
Step 4: Add Topping
- In a small bowl, mix together the ketchup, brown sugar, and mustard (if using) to make the glaze.
- Spoon a bit of the glaze over each mini meatloaf muffin, spreading it evenly across the tops.
Step 5: Bake
- Place the muffin tin in the oven and bake for 18-20 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 160°F (71°C) and the meatloaves are cooked through.
Step 6: Serve
- Allow the mini meatloaf muffins to cool for a few minutes before removing them from the pan. Serve warm with your favorite sides, such as mashed potatoes, steamed veggies, or a side salad.
