Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound ground turkey
- 0.25 cup almond flour
- 1 large egg
- 1 medium, finely chopped onion
- 1 medium, shredded carrot
- 2 cloves, minced garlic
- 3 tablespoons tomato paste
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon coconut aminos
- 1 teaspoon, for greasing avocado oil
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a loaf pan with avocado oil or line it with parchment paper, allowing the edges of the parchment to hang over the sides for easy removal.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground turkey, almond flour, egg, finely chopped onion, shredded carrot, minced garlic, and tomato paste.
Add the Italian seasoning, salt, black pepper, and coconut aminos to the mixture. Use clean hands or a spatula to gently mix everything until well combined, being careful not to overmix.
Transfer the turkey mixture into the prepared loaf pan. Press it down gently with your hands or a spatula to create an even surface.
Place the pan into the preheated oven on the middle rack. Bake for 45-50 minutes, or until the internal temperature of the meatloaf reaches 165°F (74°C).
Once cooked, remove the meatloaf from the oven and let it rest for 5-10 minutes. This allows the juices to redistribute and makes it easier to slice.
Carefully lift the meatloaf out of the pan if using parchment paper, or slice it directly in the pan if not. Serve warm with your favorite Paleo-friendly sides, such as roasted vegetables or a simple salad.
