Best 6 Donnas Meatloaf Recipes

MEATLOAF (TRADITIONAL RECIPE WITH OATMEAL)

Steps:

• Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease a 9x5 loaf pan or line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
• In a large mixing bowl, add the ground beef, quick oats, diced onion, eggs, meatloaf seasoning, and ketchup. Mix until just combined, do not over-mix.
• Transfer the meatloaf mixture into your prepared loaf pan then shape so that the loaf is mounded at the top. Or transfer the loaf mixture to your baking sheet and form it into a loaf approximately the same size as a loaf pan (9x5-inch).
• Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 50 minutes, remove from the oven and coat with an additional 1/3 cup of ketchup or BBQ sauce if desired. Return to the oven and finish cooking for an additional 10-20 minutes. Your meatloaf is done when it has an internal temperature of 160°F (71°C).
• Remove from the oven when done, drain off the excess grease, and then allow your meatloaf to rest for 10 minutes before slicing and serving.

MEAT LOAF

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
• Heat the olive oil in a medium saute pan. Add the onions, thyme, salt, and pepper and cook over medium-low heat, stirring occasionally, for 8 to 10 minutes, until the onions are translucent but not brown. Off the heat, add the Worcestershire sauce, chicken stock, and tomato paste. Allow to cool slightly.
• In a large bowl, combine the ground chuck, onion mixture, bread crumbs, and eggs, and mix lightly with a fork. Don't mash or the meat loaf will be dense. Shape the mixture into a rectangular loaf on a sheet pan covered with parchment paper. Spread the ketchup evenly on top. Bake for 1 to 1 1/4 hours, until the internal temperature is 160 degrees F and the meat loaf is cooked through. (A pan of hot water in the oven, under the meat loaf, will keep the top from cracking.) Serve hot.
