– 1 cup breadcrumbs (preferably whole wheat)
– 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
– 1/2 cup finely chopped onion
– 1/2 cup finely chopped bell pepper
– 2 cloves garlic, minced
– 1/4 cup ketchup (plus extra for topping)
– 1 large egg

– 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)
– Cooking spray or olive oil for greasing the muffin tin


Instructions

Creating Mini Turkey Meatloaf Muffins is easy if you follow these simple steps:

1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a muffin tin with cooking spray or olive oil.
2. Prepare the Mixture: In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground turkey, breadcrumbs, grated Parmesan cheese, chopped onion, chopped bell pepper, minced garlic, ketchup, egg, Worcestershire sauce, Italian seasoning, salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes (if using).
3. Mix Well: Use your hands or a spatula to mix all the ingredients until well combined. Avoid over-mixing, as this can lead to tough meatloaf muffins.
4. Fill Muffin Tin: Spoon the turkey mixture into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup about 2/3 full. Smooth the tops with a spoon.
5. Add Topping: If desired, spoon a small amount of ketchup on top of each muffin for added flavor and moisture.
6. Bake: Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes or until the muffins are cooked through and golden brown on the top.
7. Check for Doneness: Use a meat thermometer to ensure the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
8. Cool Slightly: Once done, remove the muffins from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes before gently removing them from the muffin tin.
9. Serve Warm: Serve the muffins warm, and enjoy!
