Instructions

Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a 12-cup muffin tin.
In a large bowl, combine ground beef, breadcrumbs, milk, ketchup, egg, onion, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
Mix until just combined; do not overmix.
Divide the meat mixture evenly into the muffin cups and press down lightly.
Top each mini meatloaf with a small spoonful of ketchup.
Bake for 20–25 minutes, or until the meat is cooked through and internal temperature reaches 160°F (71°C).
Let rest for 5 minutes before removing from the tin. Serve warm.
