Description
A simple recipe for cooking a small meatloaf in an air fryer.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 pound ground beef
- 1/2 cup breadcrumbs
- 1/4 cup milk
- 1 small egg, lightly beaten
- 1/4 cup finely chopped onion
- 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons ketchup (for topping)
Instructions
- In a bowl, combine the ground beef, breadcrumbs, milk, egg, onion, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and pepper. Mix gently until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Shape the mixture into a small loaf shape that fits comfortably in your air fryer basket.
- Place the meatloaf in the air fryer basket.
- Brush the top of the meatloaf evenly with the ketchup.
- Air fry at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 25 minutes.
- Check the internal temperature; if it has not reached 160 degrees Fahrenheit, continue cooking in 5-minute increments until done.
- Remove from the air fryer and let rest for 5 minutes before slicing and serving.
Notes
- Use a loaf pan insert if your air fryer basket is not suitable for holding the shape.
- For a moister meatloaf, you can place a small amount of water in the bottom of the air fryer drawer, away from the basket.
