If you are looking for a meal that is as cute as it is delicious, these mini meatloaf muffins are the perfect solution. They pack all the savory flavor of a classic meatloaf into perfectly portioned, individual servings that are just the right size for everyone in the family. Because they are smaller, they cook much faster than a traditional loaf, making them an ideal choice for a busy weeknight dinner.
To get started, preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). In a large bowl, combine your ingredients: 1 ½ pounds of ground beef, ½ cup of chopped onion, ½ cup of chopped bell pepper, 2 teaspoons of Worcestershire sauce, 2 tablespoons of fresh parsley, 1 teaspoon of Dijon mustard, ¼ cup of barbecue sauce, ⅔ cup of breadcrumbs, 1 teaspoon of Italian seasoning, 1 teaspoon of garlic powder, 1 large egg, and salt and pepper to taste. Mix everything together with your hands until the ingredients are well combined.
Divide the mixture equally into 10 greased sections of a muffin tray. For the signature glaze, mix together ¼ cup of barbecue sauce, ¼ cup of ketchup, and 1 tablespoon of honey. Spoon this sauce over the top of each mini meatloaf. Bake for 25 minutes, or until they are golden brown and fully cooked through. Let them cool for a few minutes before removing them from the tray.
These muffins are not only great for a quick dinner, but they are also simple to eat and sure to be a hit with both kids and adults alike.
