Instant Pot Meatloaf & Mashed Potatoes
yield: 6 SERVINGS
Here's how to make Instant Pot Meatloaf and Mashed Potatoes together as a onlineforting and convenient one pot meal the entire family will love!
Ingredients
For the Meatloaf:
- 2 pounds ground beef
- 1 egg
- 1 cup Italian breadcrumbs
- 1/3 cup ketchup or BBQ sauce
- splash of Worcestershire
- 2 tablespoons minced garlic, fresh
- 2 tablespoons dried minced onion or 1/2 cup finely minced onion
- 2 teaspoons dried parsley
- extra ketchup or BBQ sauce for topping, if desired
For the Potatoes:
- 2 lbs. potatoes, chopped (I used Yukon Gold potatoes with skins left on)
- 1/2 cup half and half cream
- 1/2 cup or more chicken broth
- 2 tablespoons butter
- Salt & Pepper to taste
Directions
1
Mix ingredients for meatloaf with a potato masher in a large bowl.
2
Transfer to a disposable foil loaf pan or make your own loaf shaped pan out of tin foil.
3
Cut potatoes into smaller pieces and place at the bottom of Instant Pot. Arranged them in an even layer. Add 1 cup broth or water over potatoes.
4
Place the rack that onlinees with your Instant Pot over potatoes and set the meatloaf on top. (I had to squish the pan a little for it to fit, but that’s fine.) The rack will make it easy for you to take loaf out when it’s done.
5
Secure lid and set at Manual (high pressure) cook time to 25 minutes. Make sure steam release is closed.
6
When finished, do a quick release on the pressure.
7
Top with a little additional ketchup and place under the oven’s broiler for a few minutes to caramelize. (Optional, but yummy step!)
8
Meanwhile to make potatoes, mash them in the Instant Pot with half & half, broth, butter, salt, and pepper until creamy.
