3. Fill the muffin tin
   Divide the mixture evenly into 10–12 muffin cups, pressing lightly to shape.
4. Add glaze
   Mix glaze ingredients and spoon a little on top of each mini meatloaf.
5. Bake
   Bake for 20–25 minutes, or until fully cooked (internal temp 160°F / 71°C).
6. Rest & serve
   Let them cool for a few minutes before removing. Serve warm!

 Tips:

• Add shredded cheese inside for a gooey center.
• Swap beef for chicken or turkey for a lighter option.
• Great with mashed potatoes or roasted veggies.
