How to Make Bacon Cheeseburger Meatloaf Muffins
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Spray a 12-cup muffin tin with nonstick cooking spray.
- In a large bowl, combine 1 lb ground beef, 2 large eggs, 1 1/2 cups breadcrumbs, 1/4 cup mayonnaise, 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce, 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese, 1/2 cup ketchup, 1/4 cup yellow mustard, and 1/2 cup cooked and crumbled bacon bits.
- Mix thoroughly until just combined. Add more breadcrumbs, 1/4 cup at a time, if the mixture seems too wet.
- Spoon the meat mixture evenly into the prepared muffin cups, filling each about 2/3 full.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the remaining 1/2 cup ketchup, 1/4 cup mustard, and 2 tablespoons brown sugar.
- Spoon the ketchup mixture evenly over the meatloaf muffins.
- Place the muffin tin on a baking sheet for stability.
- Bake for 35 minutes.
- During the last 5 minutes of baking, sprinkle 1/2 cup French fried onions evenly over the top. Watch carefully to prevent burning.
Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
Want to unlock deeper, more complex flavors? Try toasting your whole spices before grinding them, or blooming ground spices in a little warm oil to enhance their aroma. Deglazing your pan with a bit of stock, wine, or even water after browning ingredients can capture those tasty caramelized bits, adding richness to your dish.
