Ingredienser
  

  • 1 pound lean ground beef
  • 1/2 cup plain breadcrumbs
  • 1 large egg
  • 1/4 cup finely diced yellow onion
  • 2 tablespoons ketchup, plus 2 tablespoons for topping
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 8 thin-cut bacon slices
  • 1 pound carrots, peeled and cut into 2-inch sticks
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme

fremgangsmåte
 

  • Heat the oven to 400°F. Lightly grease a 12-cup muffin tin.
  • In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, breadcrumbs, egg, onion, 2 tablespoons of ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix gently until just combined.
  • Divide the mixture into 8 portions and shape each into a small loaf. Wrap one bacon slice around each portion, trimming the bacon if needed. Place the mini meatloaves in 8 cups of the muffin tin with the bacon seam facing down. Spoon the remaining ketchup over the tops.
  • Toss the carrot sticks with the olive oil and dried thyme. Spread them in a single layer on a rimmed baking sheet.
  • Put the muffin tin and baking sheet in the oven. Roast for 20 to 25 minutes, turning the carrots once, until the carrots are tender and the meatloaves reach 160°F in the center. If the bacon needs more browning, broil the meatloaves briefly while watching closely.
  • Let the meatloaves rest for 5 minutes before removing them from the tin. Serve with the roasted carrots.

Thin-cut bacon wraps more easily and is more likely to crisp before the meatloaves finish cooking. Cut the carrots into similar-sized sticks so they roast evenly, and use a meat thermometer to check the center of a loaf without touching the muffin tin.
