Meatball Instructions

- Next, place all ingredients into a mixing bowl.
- Combine (with your hands!) until well blended but not overmixed. Don’t be afraid to get your hands dirty on this one!
- Spray your muffin tins with olive oil spray, and fill each one with the mixture (should evenly divide into all 12 cups without filling to the top).
- Whisk together the ingredients for the glaze.
- Evenly distribute glaze on top of each muffin cup.
- Bake in a 350-degree Fahrenheit heated oven for 25 minutes.
- While your meatloaf cupcakes are baking, prepare the mashed potatoes.
Mashed Potatoes Instructions
- Slice potatoes in half and boil for approximately 20 minutes.
- Drain potatoes, and mash with a potato masher until there are no chunks remaining.
- Add butter, sour cream, garlic, salt, and pepper, and chop the green onions.
- Add green onions to the potatoes, and adjust salt and pepper to taste.
- Now it’s time to assemble your cupcakes! sThere will be some water in the bottom of each muffin, so remove them from the tins and place them on a plate or platter.
- Put a little less than 1/4 cup of potato mixture on top of each muffin. You can form these into balls with your hands and shape them over the meatloaf muffins.
