Meatloaf Recipe with Oatmeal
Description
Meatloaf with oatmeal combines 85% lean ground beef and finely diced onion with quick oats and whole milk to help bind and retain moisture throughout baking. Eggs and Worcestershire sauce add richness and depth, while salt and garlic powder provide seasoning. The mixture rests for 10 minutes before shaping into a loaf, allowing flavors to meld.
The loaf is coated with ketchup before baking at 375°F for 45 minutes or until it reaches a safe internal temperature of 165°F, resulting in a tender yet sliceable texture. Letting the meatloaf rest before slicing helps the juices redistribute and maintain moistness.
This straightforward meatloaf suits comfort food meals and pairs well with mashed potatoes or steamed vegetables. The oatmeal helps keep the meatloaf from drying out, making it forgiving for home cooks.
Ingredients
- 2 lb ground beef 85% lean or leaner
- 1 onion diced, small
- 3/4 cup quick oats uncooked
- 1/2 cup milk whole
- 2 egg large

- 1 tsp salt sea salt
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 cup ketchup
Instructions
- In a large bowl, combine all the ingredients together except for the ketchup. Allow the mixture to rest for 10 minutes at room temperature to meld the flavors together.
- Line a loaf pan or baking sheet with foil. Transfer the meat mixture into the pan with your hands, shaping it into a loaf.
- Spread the ketchup over the loaf and bake it at 375°F for 45 minutes, or until internal temperature reaches 165°F.
- Remove the meatloaf from the pan and allow it to rest for 10 minutes before slicing into it. Enjoy!
