My kids absolutely adore this Instant Pot Meatloaf Muffin recipe, plus they are keto! Kid Friendly, Keto, and packed full of delicious flavors? Sounds like a win-win to me…or is that a win-win-win?
One of the very first Instant Pot accessories I went out and bought after getting my Instant Pot was this silicone “egg bites” mold.
It is so incredibly easy to use and perfect for making these mini meatloaf bites in. Individual portion sized, kid friendly, and super easy to make in batches for freezer meal planning!
Instant Pot Keto Meatloaf
When it comes to meatloaf, I tend to be very particular. Ground beef on it’s own tends to be very bland and can dry out quickly. To add flavor and texture to our mini meatloaves I love to add onions and other spices.
The downside of this though is that onions will release moisture while being cooked. Add to it that these meatloaf muffins are being cooked in a pressure cooker (with liquid) and these mini meatloaves can come out a tad wet.
I promise though, it’s an easy fix! Just simply drain off the excess liquids and pat them dry. Easy peasy 🙂
Alrighty y’all, let’s get cooking!
