Instant Pot Meatloaf
After I tried this all-in-one meatloaf dinner in an Instant pot, I have never made it a different way since. You are going to love the way the potatoes and meatloaf cook all together, cutting down on pots and pans. It also frees up your oven and stovetop for other things if needed. It also eliminates heating up your kitchen to have this classic favorite meal. The family is going to love the taste and you are going to love how easy it is. Using the instant pot infuses moisture and flavor into the meat, no more dry meatloaf! The flavor is customizable too. Add parmesan and more Italian seasoning and top with marinara for an Italian twist on this favorite. I used to avoid meatloaf because it was such a mess, but cooking it in the instant pot wipes that out. And being able to do the potatoes at the same time is such a plus. Perfect for a lazy Sunday dinner or even a quick weekday hearty meal. Enjoy!

How Long to Cook Meatloaf in an Instant Pot
You will probably never make meatloaf any other way after you have tried this! It’s perfect every single time!
Mashed Potatoes in the Instant Pot
Mashed Potatoes are excellent made in the instant pot. Once your meatloaf is finished cooking, you just carefully remove the meatloaf from the instant pot and let it rest for 10 minutes to reabsorb the juices.
Ground Beef: Lean and even extra lean ground beef will work in the instant pot beautifully. The instant pot infuses the meat with steam and moisture. You can use beef from 85/15- 97/3 with success. Potatoes: You can also use baby potatoes in this recipe and toss them in butter before serving, instead of mashing them. No Potatoes: If you want to skip the potatoes, place the meatloaf on top of an instant pot trivet to keep it out of the water. Don’t over mix: When mixing your ingredients mix until just blended. Overmixing will cause a tough meatloaf. Broil: This step is optional but I highly recommend it. Once the meatloaf is done place under the broiler for 5-8 minutes until the glaze is nicely browned. So good!Let it rest: This is super important! It allows the meatloaf to reabsorb the juices and redistribute them. Let it sit for at least 10-15 minutes. Cover gently with foil while the meatloaf is resting.
Refrigerate: Tightly cover and keep in the fridge for up to 4 days.Freeze: Wrap leftover meatloaf in plastic wrap or foil and place in a freezer-safe bag and freeze for up to 3 months. Thaw overnight in the fridge. Reheat: Put in a 350-degree oven and cover. Bake for 15 min or till the internal temperature is 165 degrees, which is safe for reheated food.
