Perfectly portioned and full of flavor, these Mini Turkey Meatloaves are a delicious twist on a comfort food classic. Made with lean ground turkey, aromatic garlic, diced onions, and a touch of Worcestershire sauce for depth, these individual-sized meatloaves are baked in a muffin tin for quick and even cooking. The highlight is the irresistible tangy-sweet glaze, crafted from ketchup, brown sugar, and apple cider vinegar, caramelized to perfection in just 25 minutes of baking. Whether you're meal prepping for the week or serving a cozy weeknight dinner, these tender and juicy mini loaves are as versatile as they are satisfying. Pair them with creamy mashed potatoes or roasted veggies for a wholesome, family-friendly meal. Plus, with a speedy 15-minute prep time, this recipe is perfect for busy nights.
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a muffin tin with the vegetable oil to prevent sticking.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the breadcrumbs and milk. Let the mixture soak for 2-3 minutes to soften the breadcrumbs.
Add the ground turkey, egg, onion, garlic, Worcestershire sauce, ketchup, Dijon mustard, salt, and black pepper to the bowl with the breadcrumb mixture. Use clean hands or a wooden spoon to gently mix everything together until just combined. Do not overmix, as this can make the meatloaves dense.
Divide the meat mixture evenly among the wells of the muffin tin. Press the mixture down slightly to form mini loaves, filling each well about 3/4 full.
In a small bowl, whisk together the ketchup, brown sugar, and apple cider vinegar to make the glaze.
Using a spoon, spread a small amount of the glaze over the top of each mini meatloaf.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the internal temperature of the meatloaves reaches 165°F (74°C).
Remove the muffin tin from the oven and let the meatloaves rest for 5 minutes before carefully removing them from the tin.
Serve the mini turkey meatloaves warm with your favorite sides, such as mashed potatoes or steamed vegetables.
