Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pounds ground beef
- 1 cup gluten-free breadcrumbs
- 0.5 cup milk (dairy or non-dairy)
- 2 large egg
- 1 medium onion, finely chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce (ensure it’s gluten-free)
- 0.25 cup ketchup
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.25 cup ketchup (for topping)
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease a loaf pan if you plan to use one.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, gluten-free breadcrumbs, milk, eggs, chopped onion, minced garlic, Worcestershire sauce, ketchup, Italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper.
Using clean hands or a wooden spoon, mix all the ingredients until well incorporated. Be careful not to overmix, as this can make the meatloaf dense.
Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking sheet or loaf pan. Shape it into a loaf form if using a baking sheet.
In a small bowl, whisk together the ketchup, brown sugar, and apple cider vinegar for the topping. Spread this mixture evenly over the top of the meatloaf.
Place the meatloaf in the preheated oven and bake for 55-60 minutes, or until the internal temperature of the meatloaf reaches 160°F (71°C).
Once cooked, remove the meatloaf from the oven and let it rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing.
Slice and serve with your favorite sides, such as mashed potatoes and steamed vegetables. Enjoy your gluten-free meal!
