INGREDIENTS

Meatloaf Mix

  • 1.5 lbs ground beef
  • 1 cup quick oats
  • ½ cup yellow onion finely chopped
  • ¼ cup unsalted beef broth
  • 1 egg slightly beaten

Topping

  • ⅓ cup low sodium ketchup (Note 1)

INSTRUCTIONS

  • Preheat the oven to 375 ° F (190 ° C).
  • Combine all the ingredients for the meatloaf in a large bowl except the ketchup. Do not mix too much so as not to obtain too compacted bread.
  • Line a high-sided rectangular pan with parchment paper and place the mixture in it.
    Depending on your preference, you can also shape the meat mixture into the shape of bread and bake it on a lined baking sheet.
  • Cover evenly the top of the meatloaf with the ketchup.
  • Bake uncovered in the oven for 1 hour.
  • Take the meatloaf out of the oven and let rest uncovered for 10 to 15 minutes. It might seem too juicy and soft at first, but as it cools down a bit, it will absorb the excess liquid and firm up.
