Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pounds Ground beef
- 1 medium Yellow onion, finely chopped
- 1 cup Panko breadcrumbs
- 0.5 cup Whole milk
- 2 items Large eggs
- 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
- 0.5 cup Ketchup
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 cup Fried onions (store-bought or homemade)
- 0.25 cup Ketchup (for topping)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a loaf pan lightly with cooking spray or oil.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, finely chopped onion, panko breadcrumbs, milk, eggs, Worcestershire sauce, ketchup, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Use clean hands or a wooden spoon to thoroughly mix the ingredients until just combined.
Transfer the meat mixture to the prepared loaf pan and gently press it into an even layer, being careful not to pack it too tightly.
Spread 1/4 cup of ketchup evenly across the top of the meatloaf for a glossy glaze.
Bake the meatloaf in the preheated oven for 50 minutes.
After 50 minutes, remove the meatloaf from the oven and sprinkle the fried onions evenly across the top of the glaze.
Return the meatloaf to the oven and bake for an additional 10 minutes, or until the onions are golden brown and the internal temperature of the meatloaf reaches 160°F (71°C).
Remove the meatloaf from the oven and let it rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing and serving.
Serve hot with your favorite sides and enjoy!
