Description

'Frosted' with a brown sugar, ketchup, and vinegar glaze, these meatloaf muffins are easy to prep ahead of time for an on-the-go meal.

Ingredients

cooking spray
1 pound extra-lean ground beef
1 cup diced petite-cut tomatoes
1 cup seasoned bread crumbs
1/4 cup egg substitute
4 tablespoons ketchup, divided
2 tablespoons dried minced onion
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon salt
3/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
2 tablespoons packed brown sugar
1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar

Directions

1 Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Spray a 12-cup muffin tin with cooking spray.
2 Combine beef, tomatoes, bread crumbs, egg substitute, 3 tablespoons ketchup, dried onion, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and pepper in a bowl. Fill muffin cups with the beef mixture.
3 Mix remaining 1 tablespoon ketchup with brown sugar and vinegar in a small bowl to create a glaze. Brush or spoon glaze over the muffins.
4 Bake in the preheated oven until muffins are no longer pink in the center, about 35 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 160 degrees F (70 degrees C).
