1

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F and prepare a 12-cup muffin tin.

2

In a small bowl, whisk together the meatloaf sauce ingredients: brown sugar, ketchup, dijon mustard, and ground nutmeg until well combined.

3

In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, breadcrumbs, chopped onion, barbecue sauce, mustard, chili powder, garlic powder, salt, pepper, and beaten egg. Mix thoroughly using your hands or a large spoon until all ingredients are evenly distributed.

4

Divide the meat mixture evenly among the 12 muffin tin cups, pressing the meat down firmly to fill each cup completely.

5

Bake the mini meatloaves for 15 minutes. Remove from the oven and use a paper towel to blot away any excess grease. Generously spoon the prepared meatloaf sauce over each mini meatloaf. Return to the oven and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes, or until the meat is fully cooked through.

6

Serve the mini meatloaves hot with mashed potatoes and extra sauce on the side.
