Preheat your oven to 375Β°F (190Β°C) and lightly grease a loaf pan or line it with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground turkey, rolled oats, egg, skim milk, onion, garlic, Worcestershire sauce, Italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper. Mix gently but thoroughly using clean hands or a wooden spoon.
Transfer the meat mixture into the prepared loaf pan and press it down evenly to form a compact loaf shape.
Spread the ketchup evenly on top of the meatloaf as a glaze.
Place the loaf pan in the preheated oven and bake for 45-50 minutes, or until the internal temperature of the meatloaf reaches 165Β°F (74Β°C).
Once cooked, remove the meatloaf from the oven and let it rest for about 5-10 minutes before slicing.
Cut into 6 equal slices, serve warm, and enjoy your healthier version of a classic comfort food!
