Preparation

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Spray twelve 2 3/4-inch muffin cups with nonstick cooking spray. Place 1 slice of bread in each muffin cup, pressing firmly to mold into the shape of the cup.

In a medium bowl, combine the beef, onion, bread crumbs, egg, garlic and pepper. Spoon evenly into the bread-lined muffin cups. Top each with 1 teaspoon of the barbecue sauce and an even sprinkling of the cheese.

Bake until the beef is cooked through and browned, about 25 minutes.
