Equipment

  • Muffin Tin

Ingredients

Main

  • 1 lb ground beef 85% lean
  • 1/2 cup crushed pork rinds used as keto breadcrumbs
  • 1/3 cup grated parmesan cheese
  • 1 large egg
  • 1/4 cup sugar-free ketchup divided
  • 1/4 cup onion finely diced
  • 2 garlic cloves minced
  • 1 tsp Worcestershire sauce sugar-free
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 375°F and lightly grease a muffin tin with oil or cooking spray. This helps the mini meatloafs release easily after baking.
  • In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, crushed pork rinds, parmesan cheese, egg, diced onion, minced garlic, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and pepper. Add half of the sugar-free ketchup (about 2 tablespoons). Mix gently with your hands or a fork until everything is evenly distributed, being careful not to overwork the meat to keep the texture tender.
  • Divide the mixture into 6 equal portions and press each portion into a muffin tin cup, shaping the tops slightly rounded. This helps the mini meatloafs cook evenly and maintain their shape.
  • Spoon the remaining 2 tablespoons of sugar-free ketchup over the tops of the meatloafs, spreading it with the back of a spoon to form a thin glaze that caramelizes as it bakes.
  • Bake for 18–20 minutes, or until the centers reach 160°F and the tops look slightly caramelized. Remove the pan from the oven and let the meatloafs rest for 5 minutes before removing them to help them firm up and hold their shape.

Notes

Serve with cauliflower mash or sautéed green beans for a complete keto dinner. Add chopped bacon, jalapeños, or shredded cheese to the meat mixture for extra flavor variations.
