BACON WRAPPED MEATLOAF CUPCAKES WITH MASHED POTATO TOPPING RECIPE - (4.3/5)



Bacon Wrapped Meatloaf Cupcakes with Mashed Potato Topping Recipe - (4.3/5) image

Provided by PineyCook

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 1/2 pounds ground beef
1 cup bread crumbs
1 onion, finely diced
1 egg, lightly beaten
1 1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1 (8 ounce) can tomato paste
2 tablespoons brown sugar
1 1/2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
1 1/2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
12 slices bacon
5 potatoes
1/4 cup Cheddar cheese, shredded
2 tablespoons butter
1/4 cup milk
1/2 teaspoon salt

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. MEATLOAF: Line your muffin tin with the bacon so that each tin is circled by one strip. Mix together the beef, bread crumbs, onion, egg, salt, pepper, tomato paste, sugar, mustard, and Worcestershire sauce. Form the meat into 12 equally sized balls and place them into the bacon-lined muffin tins. Fold the top of the bacon over, if needed. Pop them into the oven for 45 minutes to 1 hour, or until the meat is cooked through and the bacon is crisp. POTATOES: While the meatloaf is cooking, prepare your mashed potatoes. Dice up the potatoes and boil them in salted water until they're soft. Drain the potatoes, pop them into a mixing bowl, and mash them with a fork until they're completely smooth. Add your butter, cheese, milk, salt, etc and mix until fully combined. Move your mashed potatoes into a piping bag (or a zip-lock with an edge cut off) and save it until the meatloaf is ready. CUPCAKE: Once the meatloaf is ready, take them out of the oven, and pipe them with the mashed potatoes! After they're all piped, pop them back into the oven, and turn your heat up to 400-500 degrees F. Heat until the tops of the potatoes are golden brown (it should be very quick - no more than 5-6 minutes). Remove them from the oven, let cool for a bit, and enjoy!

BACON-WRAPPED MINI MEATLOAF

This is a fantastic recipe to make ahead of time and have frozen, just to use at your convenience!! The addition of grated carrot to the mixture is a smart way to work veggies into the meal, while the bacon helps keep the patties moist while frozen.

BACON CHEESEBURGER MEATLOAF MUFFINS



Bacon Cheeseburger Meatloaf Muffins image

I found this on the Tasty Kitchen website while I was trying to find something to make for dinner. I changed a TON of things from the original because the first time I made it, I baked the muffing until they were burnt on top, but they never cooked on the inside. I added more breadcrumbs and subtracted some of the moist ingredients to get this recipe turned into something not quite so disappointed (but at least the cooked tops tasted good!).
