A fun twist on a classic dish, these meatloaf cupcakes feature bacon-wrapped meat topped with a sweet and smoky bourbon glaze, perfect for family dinners or gatherings.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb ground beef
  • 1/2 cup breadcrumbs
  • 1/4 cup onion, finely chopped
  • 1/4 cup bell pepper, finely chopped
  • 1 egg
  • 1/2 cup BBQ sauce
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 10 slices of bacon
  • 1/4 cup bourbon (optional for glaze)
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar (optional for glaze)
  • 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce (optional for glaze)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a large bowl, combine ground beef, breadcrumbs, onion, bell pepper, egg, BBQ sauce, salt, and pepper.
  3. Grease a muffin tin and line each cup with a slice of bacon, letting it hang over the edge.
  4. Fill each bacon-lined cup with the meatloaf mixture.
  5. Wrap the overhanging bacon over the top of the meatloaf.
  6. In a small saucepan, combine bourbon, brown sugar, and Worcestershire sauce. Heat until the sugar dissolves, then brush over the meatloaf.
  7. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until meatloaf is cooked through and bacon is crispy.
  8. Let cool slightly before serving.

Notes

For best results, finely chop the onions and bell peppers. Adjust BBQ sauce to taste, and consider adding vegetables or cheese for extra flavor.
