INSTANT POT MEATLOAF
Meatloaf is the ultimate comfort food, and one bite of this next twist on an old-fashioned recipe will transport you right back to Granny's kitchen. We're by no means trying to reinvent the wheel of classic meatloaf, but we found that the right mixture of flavorful seasonings and an Instant Pot can sure make things easy and fast. This tender meat is well seasoned with garlic, Worcestershire sauce, and Dijon mustard, along with a few other spices. We also added a game changing component to the mix-balsamic vinegar. This ingredient adds an acidic flavor that beautifully balances the richness of the meatloaf. Serve this hearty dish alongside a fresh salad and Classic Baked Macaroni and Cheese and you'll have a weeknight feast. Best of all, you'll have enough leftovers to create meatloaf sandwiches for lunches for the week ahead. If you're in a time crunch and need an easy weeknight dinner (especially on those cold winter nights), this savory Instant Pot Meatloaf is the answer you've been searching for.

Steps:
- Gently stir together beef, eggs, garlic, onion, panko, Worcestershire, salt, and pepper in a medium bowl, being careful not to overmix. Form mixture into an 8- x 5 1/2-inch loaf. Place loaf in center of a large piece of heavy-duty aluminum foil. Fold up sides of foil to make a secure nest for meatloaf (you want the sides high enough so any moisture will not spill out).
- Stir together ketchup, vinegar, and Dijon. Spread mixture evenly over meatloaf. Pour water into a programmable pressure multicooker (such as Instant Pot). Place cooker rack in cooker. Place meatloaf in foil on rack. Cover cooker with lid, and lock in place. Turn steam release handle to SEALING position. Select MANUAL/PRESSURE COOK setting. Select HIGH pressure for 25 minutes. (It will take 6 to 8 minutes for cooker to come up to pressure before cooking begins.)
- Carefully turn steam release handle to VENTING position, and let steam fully escape (float valve will drop). (This will take about 2 to 3 minutes). Remove lid from cooker. Let meatloaf stand in cooker 5 minutes. Carefully remove meatloaf to a platter; discard foil and drippings. Re-spread ketchup topping over meatloaf, if needed. Cut meatloaf into slices, and serve.

Steps:
- Combine beef, bread crumbs, onion, apple, garlic powder, salt, and pepper in a large bowl until evenly blended.
- Shape the beef mixture into a loaf and place on a large piece of aluminum foil. Fold the foil up and around the edges of the meatloaf, creating a makeshift loaf pan.
- Pour 1/2 cup water into a multi-functional pressure cooker (such as Instant Pot®) and place the steam rack inside with the handles up. Place the meatloaf on top of the rack. Close and lock the lid; seal the vent. Select high pressure according to manufacturer's instructions; set timer for 25 minutes. Allow 10 to 15 minutes for pressure to build.
- Set an oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven's broiler.
- Release cooker pressure carefully using the quick-release method according to manufacturer's instructions, about 5 minutes. Unlock and remove the lid. Transfer meatloaf, still on the rack, to a baking sheet. Broil meatloaf in the oven until browned, about 5 minutes.
- Combine ketchup, mustard, and brown sugar in a small bowl. Brush over meatloaf and broil again until caramelized, 1 to 2 minutes.

INSTANT POT MEAT LOAF
I used to make this pressure-cooker meat loaf a lot when my kids were growing up and I was working. It's easy to make and a family favorite. Several loaves can be made ahead and frozen for busy weeks. Thaw a loaf in the refrigerator overnight and then it's ready to cook. -Kallee Krong-Mccreery, Escondido, California
