Keto Meatloaf with Tomato Glace

This easy Keto meatloaf is great for feeding a crowd or meal-prepping for the week! The recipe swaps out the bread crumbs for a tasty dish that’s low in carbs.

Meatloaf is a staple under the “quick and easy dinner” category. It’s a great way to feed a crowd or meal-prep for the week!

Traditional meatloaf uses breadcrumbs to hold the loaf together, which adds a lot of unnecessary carbs. So to make this Keto meatloaf, we’ll simply swap out the bread crumbs for low-carb ingredients.

The next time you’re looking for a classic comfort food that you can feel good about eating, definitely give this tasty low carb meatloaf a try.

How to make Keto meatloaf

This recipe is incredibly simple to make. All you have to do is mix the ingredients and bake!

Step 1: Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C) and grease a loaf pan well.

Step 2: In a pan over medium heat, sauté the onion until translucent. Add the garlic and cook for 30 seconds until fragrant, then remove from heat.

Step 3: In a large mixing bowl, add the sautéed onion and garlic along with the ground beef, liquid smoke, flax seed meal, eggs, Worcestershire sauce, tomato paste, dried oregano, salt, and pepper.

You can leave out the liquid smoke if you don’t have any, but it does add a great smoky flavor.

Step 4: Mix the ingredients well, but be careful not to over-mix so the meatloaf will still have some texture. If the mixture seems too wet, you can add up to 2 tablespoons of almond flour as needed.

Step 5: Transfer the mixture to the loaf pan.

Step 6: Bake the meatloaf for 40 minutes.

Step 7: In a small bowl, add all of the ingredients for the glaze and mix until smooth.

Step 8: Spread the tomato glaze over the meatloaf.

Step 9: Return the meatloaf to the oven and bake for another 30 minutes until completely cooked through.

Step 10: Remove the meatloaf from the oven and allow it to stand for 15 minutes.

Once it’s ready, garnish with fresh thyme, cut into 14 servings, and enjoy!
