Keto Meatloaf with Pork Rinds
Description
This Keto Meatloaf recipe uses 80/20 ground beef mixed with diced onions, crushed pork rinds, egg, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, and salt. Pork rinds serve as a crunchy, carb-free substitute for breadcrumbs to help bind the meat. The mixture is pressed into a lined loaf pan and initially baked at 350°F for 30 minutes.
After the initial bake, reduced-sugar ketchup is spread on top and the meatloaf continues baking for another 25 to 35 minutes, forming a glaze. Resting for 15 minutes after baking allows juices to redistribute, resulting in a tender and flavorful meatloaf with a slightly crisp ketchup topping.
This dish offers a protein-rich, low-carb main course for those following ketogenic or low-carb diets, while still maintaining classic meatloaf flavors and textures.
Substituting onion powder for fresh onion is an option for convenience, as noted in the recipe.
Ingredients
- 2 pounds ground beef 80/20
- 1 medium onion diced
- 2 cups pork rinds crushed
- 1 large egg
- 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- ⅓ cup ketchup reduced sugar
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
- In a large bowl combine all ingredients except ketchup. Mix ingredients until fully combined.
- Press ingredients into a parchment paper lined loaf pan.
- Bake for 30 minutes. After 30 minutes add ketchup on top and bake for 25-35 minutes more.
- Remove from oven and let rest for 15 minutes.
- Enjoy!
Notes
- The net carbs for this meatloaf are about 3 grams per serving, suitable for low-carb diets.
- You can replace diced onion with 1 teaspoon of onion powder if preferred.
- Letting the meatloaf rest after baking helps maintain moisture when slicing.
