Instructions
Meatloaf Cups
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees ℉. Spray a 12-count muffin tin with non-stick spray.
- In a large mixing bowl, add the ground beef, cottage cheese, bread crumbs, onion, ketchup, mustard, garlic powder, chili powder, salt, pepper and egg. Using clean hands or 2 forks, mix well until everything is combined.
- Scoop a 1/4 cup of meat mixture into each muffin cup, pressing down into the cup. Repeat with all meatloaf mixture. Bake for 15 minutes.
Topping
- In the meantime, in a small bowl, whisk the ketchup and brown sugar and together. Carefully, remove the meatloaf cups from the oven. Spoon 2 teaspoons of topping over each meatloaf cup.
- Return meatloaf cups to the oven and bake for an additional 10 minutes or until the meat is cooked through. Serve warm with any extra topping sauce. Enjoy!
