Meatloaf baked in muffin cups and topped with mashed potatoes, also known as meatloaf cupcakes with mashed potato icing, are kid-approved. In a saucepan over medium heat, add the potatoes, water to cover the potatoes, and salt. Bring potatoes to a boil, then reduce the heat and cover.

To begin with this particular recipe, we must prepare a few ingredients. You can have meatloaf cupcakes using 12 ingredients and 7 steps. Here is how you can achieve that.

The ingredients needed to make Meatloaf Cupcakes:
  1. Prepare 1 lbs Ground Beef
  2. Make ready 2/3 Cup Ketchup

Using a simple meatloaf recipe, homemade meatloaf is turned into a mini version that is a fun comfort food meal for the whole family with these Mini Meatloaf Cupcakes. These cute little meatloaf cupcakes are irresistible to kids - big and small. I piped the mashed potato on for the photo but ordinarily I just pile it on then fluff it up with a fork - much faster! I like my muffins and cupcakes to be traditional sweet baked goodies, and I'd like to have them stay that way.

Instructions to make Meatloaf Cupcakes:
  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. I used prepackaged mashed potatoes for the "icing" so heat up the potatoes in the microwave and add two drops of food coloring to each bowl. Put them aside to thicken and set.
  2. Begin preparing the meat. Add the beef, ketchup, milk, worcester sauce, egg, crackers and cheddar into a bowl and press everything together with your hands. Season with salt and pepper. Prepare a cupcake tin by filling it with paper or foil liners.
  3. Scoop the meat into the liners. Press the meat all the way downwards into a cupcake shape.
  4. Bake for 30 min. As you can see in the pic, the meatloaf might stick to the papers and they will lose their shape. They can easily be taken out and repapered into new liners. As you take them out, I would recommend patting the oil off the "cupcakes" with paper towels before placing them in the new liners.
  5. After they are in the new liners, you can begin to ice them with the mashed potatoes.
  6. You can put anything on top from bacon to gravy or chives, but I was going for a more authentic cupcake look so I added finely shredded mozzarella to look like coconut.
  7. Heat and serve!

So I'll never refer to muffin pan meatloaf as meatloaf muffins or cupcakes - that just doesn't sound appealing. Do not insult my muffins or cupcakes :) These things are called "mini-meatloaves", period. The meatloaf itself could have been a bit lighter and more flavorful in my opinion. I also put in a teaspoon of basil a teaspoon of Oregano and a few roesmary leaves. Combine all meatloaf ingredients, except cheese, in bowl; mix well.
