Meatloaf Cupcakes

  • 35h
  • 50h
  • Irish-inspired
  • 4 servings

Ingredients

  • 1 onion
  • 6 sweet potatoes
  • 2 lb ground beef
  • 3 eggs
  • 1/4 c almond flour
  • 1 tsp. dried basil
  • 1 tsp. garlic powder
  • 2 tbsp. Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 1/2 tsp. sea salt, to taste
  • 1 tsp. ground black pepper, to taste
  • 1/4 c coconut oil, or butter

Instructions

  1. 1. Preheat oven to 375F. Peel and finely dice onion, or puree in a blender or food processor. Peel and cube sweet potatoes.
  2. 2. In a large bowl, combine meat, eggs, flour (enough to thicken- this will depend partially on the fat content of the meat and the texture of the almond flour), basil, garlic powder, onion, Worcestershire sauce, 2/3 of the salt, and 1/2 of the pepper.
  3. 3. Mix by hand until incorporated.
  4. 4. Grease a muffin tin with small amount coconut oil or butter and evenly divide the mixture into the muffin tins to make 2-3 meat “muffins” per person.
  5. 5. Place muffin tin on baking sheet (in case of spillover). Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until done.
  6. 6. In a pot over high heat, boil water and sweet potatoes until soft.
  7. 7. Drain sweet potatoes and mix with coconut oil and the remaining salt and pepper. Mash by hand or immersion blender.
  8. 8. Remove meat “muffins” from the oven when they are cooked through and remove from tin.
  9. 9. Top each with a dollop of the mashed sweet potatoes to make it look like a cupcake.
