Ingredients

  • ½ cup panko breadcrumbs ((28g))
  • ½ small onion (diced (or 1 teaspoon onion powder))
  • 3 cloves garlic (minced (or 1 teaspoon garlic powder))
  • 2 tablespoons ketchup
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 1½ pounds Yukon gold potatoes (quartered (675g))
  • 1 cup water ((or chicken broth) (240mL))
  • ¾ teaspoon salt (divided)
  • ¼ cup sour cream ((60g))
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 2 tablespoons whole milk
  • ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
  • ⅓ cup ketchup ((80ml))
  • 1 tablespoon light brown sugar
  • 1½ teaspoons Dijon mustard

Steps

  1. 1

    In a large bowl, combine all of the meatloaf ingredients and gently stir together until well combined. (I like to do this by hand, but you can use a spatula or fork too.)

  2. 2

    Shape the mixture into an 8x5-inch loaf and place on a piece of foil large enough to extend a couple of inches around each side of the meatloaf. Shape the foil around the meatloaf into a boat by folding up the edges an inch or so. (This will catch any drippings.)

  3. 3

    In the Instant Pot, arrange the potatoes in an even layer. Add the water and sprinkle with ¼ teaspoon salt of salt. Place the trivet on top of the potatoes, then set the foil with the meatloaf on top of the trivet.

  4. 4

    In a small bowl, stir together the glaze topping ingredients until smooth. Spread a third of the glaze over the meatloaf.

  5. 5

    Secure the lid and steam valve. Cook under High pressure for 20 minutes. Naturally release the steam for 10 minutes, then Quick release the remaining steam.

  6. 6

    Carefully remove the meatloaf and trivet. Spread the remaining Glaze over the meatloaf. If desired, place the meatloaf on a baking sheet and broil for 3 to 4 minutes or until the glaze is bubbly and caramelized.

  7. 7

    Meanwhile, drain the cooking liquid off of the potatoes. Keeping the potatoes in the pot, add the remaining ½ teaspoon salt, sour cream, butter, milk, and pepper. Mash the potatoes to the desired consistency. Slice the meatloaf and serve with the mashed potatoes.
