Ingredients
The following ingredients have 12 Servings
- Use this recipe to prepare the Meatloaf
- 6 Russet potatoes (peeled and boiled until soft)
- 1/2 cup milk
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 1/2 cup ketchup
- 1/3 cup cheddar cheese (shredded)
- 1/3 cup frozen mixed vegetables (thawed)
Instruction
- Prepare the meatloaf mixture using this meatloaf recipe. I boil the potatoes at this point too.
- Line a cupcake pan with foil liners. Fill each cupcake liner with meatloaf mixture. Remember that meatloaf won't rise like actual cake batter so fill them how you actually want them to look when they're done baking.
- Bake meatloaf cupcakes in a 350 oven for about 45 minutes or until cooked through.
- While meatloaf cupcakes are cooking, prepare the mashed potatoes by combining the ingredients in a large mixing bowl and mashing together with a potato masher. You can make them extra creamy by using an electric mixer. If your potatoes are too thick, add a bit more milk until it reaches the desired consistency.
- If you plan to pipe the mashed potatoes, transfer them to a pastry bag with your desired tip.
- When the meatloaf cupcakes are done cooking, remove them from the oven.
- Add about a tablespoon of ketchup onto each meatloaf cupcake and spread evenly.
- Pipe or spoon the mashed potatoes onto each meatloaf cupcake on top of the ketchup.
- Sprinkle the cheddar cheese then the mixed vegetables onto each meatloaf cupcake.
- Turn the oven to broil, then place the meatloaf cupcakes back into the oven for just a couple minutes, until the cheese is melted and the edges of the mashed potatoes are slightly golden brown, like a meringue.
- Allow at least 10 minutes for meatloaf cupcakes to set. Serve warm.
