Preheat the oven to 375°F.
2
|
Spray a large baking sheet with nonstick cooking spray. Set aside.
3
|
In a small bowl, whisk the egg.
4

In a large mixing bowl, mix together the onion, garlic, ketchup, cheese, and basil. Add the whisked egg and stir. Add the beef, and mix together with a spoon or your hands until well combined.
5

Divide the meat mixture into 4 equal portions and shape into miniature loaves. Arrange the loaves on the prepared baking sheet. In a small bowl, whisk together the ketchup, apple cider vinegar and brown sugar. Spoon the sauce evenly over the loaves.

Tips & Tricks (5)

  • Mini Meatloaf Moisture Magic 💦
    Mix in grated pecorino cheese and a splash of apple cider vinegar to help keep the mini meatloaves incredibly moist and add depth of flavor.
  • Sheet Pan Prep Pro 🥘
    Lightly coat the sheet pan with nonstick spray before arranging meatloaves and asparagus to ensure easy release and simplified cleanup.
  • Flavor Layering Technique 🧄
    Finely mince the yellow onion and garlic to distribute flavor evenly and prevent large chunks disrupting the meatloaf's texture.
  • Glaze Application Trick 🖌️
    Brush ketchup glaze in two stages - first midway through cooking and again in the final 5 minutes for a perfect caramelized exterior.
  • Asparagus Roasting Secret 🥦
    Toss asparagus with extra-virgin olive oil and dried basil before placing around the meatloaves to ensure even seasoning and crisp texture.
