Ingredients
Air Fryer Meatloaf
- 1 lb ground beef turkey, or pork
- 1 egg lightly beaten
- ¼ cup breadcrumbs (can use gluten-free, or ⅔ cup oats)
- ¾ cup onion chopped finely
- 1 red bell pepper small, chopped
- ½ cup mushrooms chopped
- ½ cup zucchini shredded
- 2 tsp yellow mustard
- 2 tsp Worcestershire sauce
- 1 Tbsp thyme fresh
- 1 Tbsp rosemary fresh
- ½ tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp salt
- pepper to taste
Balsamic Glaze
- 3 Tbsp ketchup
- 3 Tbsp balsamic vinegar
Instructions
- Heat oil in a pan and saute onion & mushroom for 4-5 minutes.
- Add bell pepper and saute 2 minutes, then add zucchini and saute for 1 more minute. Remove from heat.
- Preheat air fryer to 380°F (195°C).
- Form sheets of foil into a shallow loaf-shaped ‘tray’ that will fit inside your air fryer to hold your meatloaf.
- In a large bowl, mix all meatloaf ingredients together with hands. Form mixture into a loaf shape that will fit inside your foil tray.
- Place loaf into foil tray and then place into preheated air fryer to cook for 30-35 minutes. Remove from air fryer, spread glaze on top, and cook another 10-15 minutes. (When internal temperature reaches 160°F or 71°C, it’s ready!)
- Rest 10-15 minutes before slicing with a serrated knife.
- Serve warm (or cold) and enjoy!
- Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to a week.
