Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 lb Ground beef
- 0.5 cup Breadcrumbs
- 0.25 cup Milk
- 1 large Egg
- 0.25 cup Yellow onion, finely chopped
- 0.5 tsp Garlic powder
- 0.5 tsp Salt
- 0.25 tsp Black pepper
- 2 tbsp Ketchup
- 1 tsp Worcestershire sauce
- 0.25 cup Ketchup for glaze
- 1 tbsp Brown sugar
- 1 tsp Mustard
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and prepare a loaf pan by lightly greasing it or lining it with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, breadcrumbs, milk, egg, finely chopped onion, garlic powder, salt, pepper, ketchup, and Worcestershire sauce.
Mix the ingredients gently but thoroughly with your hands or a spoon until just combined. Avoid overmixing to keep the meatloaf tender.
Transfer the mixture to the prepared loaf pan and shape it evenly into a loaf shape.
In a small bowl, mix together the ketchup, brown sugar, and mustard for the glaze.
Spread the glaze evenly over the top of the meatloaf.
Bake the meatloaf in the preheated oven for 50-55 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 160°F (71°C).
Once cooked, allow the meatloaf to rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing and serving.
