Ingredients

Meatloaf:

  • 1 lb. ground beef 90/10 or 85/15
  • ½ cup sweet onion finely diced
  • cup breadcrumbs plain, gluten-free, if needed
  • 1 large egg whisked
  • 2 Tbsp. fresh parsley finely chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic finely minced
  • ¾ tsp. salt
  • ¼ tsp. black pepper
  • ½ tsp. oregano and basil dried

Glaze:

  • ½ cup ketchup
  • 1 tsp. Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 Tbsp. brown sugar

Instructions

  • Preheat air fryer to 370 degrees for at least 3 minutes.
  • Add all meatloaf ingredients to a large bowl and mix together by hand until well combined. Shape the meatloaf mixture into a loaf that is roughly 8 inches long and 4 inches wide.
  • Spray the air fryer basket with non-stick cooking spray and then add the meatloaf. Cook in the preheated air fryer for 18-20 minutes.
  • While the loaf is cooking, whisk together the glaze ingredients in a medium-sized bowl until well combined.
  • Brush the glaze over the top and sides of the meatloaf and then return it to the air fryer for an additional 4-5 minutes.
  • Let the meatloaf rest for 5 minutes before slicing into it. Serve with a sprinkle of fresh parsley and enjoy!

Notes

Meal Prep and Storage

  • To Prep-Ahead: You can mix up the meatloaf up to one day ahead of time, just keep in the fridge until you're ready to cook.
  • To Store: Leave leftover meatloaf in the refrigerator in an airtight container for up to 3 to 4 days.
  • To Freeze: Be sure to let the meatloaf completely cool first. For easy reheating, flash freeze individual serving-sized pieces on a tray, then transfer to a freezer-safe bag. Keep leftovers in the freezer for up to 4 to 6 months.
  • To Reheat: To warm the meatloaf back up, pop it back in the air fryer at 325℉ for 5-6 minutes. You can also use the microwave or oven if preferred.
