Ingredients
  

For the Mini Meatloaves:

  • 1 lb ground beef
  • ½ cup bread crumbs
  • 1 large egg beaten
  • ¼ cup onion finely chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper
  • 6 slices bacon
  • 3 tablespoons ketchup for topping

Instructions
 

Prepare Meatloaf Mixture:

  • Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). In a bowl, combine ground beef, bread crumbs, egg, onion, garlic, salt, and pepper. Mix until combined.

Form Mini Loaves and Wrap Bacon:

  • Divide mixture into 6 portions. Shape each into a mini loaf and wrap with a slice of bacon, securing ends underneath.

Bake:

  • Place on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Spread ketchup on top. Bake for 30–35 minutes until cooked through and bacon is crispy.

Serve:

  • Remove from oven and let rest 5 minutes before serving warm.

Notes

  • Make Ahead: Assemble mini loaves in advance and refrigerate for up to 2 hours before baking.
  • Variation: Brush with barbecue sauce instead of ketchup for extra flavor.
  • Serving Tip: Perfect for individual servings at parties or family dinners.
