Recipe
Instructions:
Note: You can omit the cracker/bread crumbs if desired and add one extra egg. The mixture will be more delicate and will do better in a loaf pan than a baking dish.
Preheat the oven to 350.
Prepare glaze mixture and set aside.
In a large bowl, add the meat, onions, eggs, milk, garlic, and seasonings.
Gently combine and then add the bread crumbs. Stir until the crumbs are distributed evenly.
For a free-formed loaf, pour ingredients on a sheet pan or glass baking dish and shape into a loaf. For a loaf pan, oil the pan with a little coconut oil, and pack the meat mixture evenly into the pan. You can also make mini loafs by using smaller loaf pans. This is perfect for freezing individual loafs for quick dinners.
Pour the glaze over the top of the meatloaf.
Place in oven and bake 1 hour.
Remove from the oven and let stand 10 minutes before slicing. If you're freezing, let the loaf cool completely in the fridge before wrapping up and freezing.
