Low Carb Classic Meatloaf
Meatloaf is the ultimate classic comfort food and is easy to make to feed a large number of people. Find ketchup that has no sugar added to make the glaze. To make this paleo, simply add coconut aminos instead of tamari.
How to Make It
Step 1
Dice onion into a small dice. Then place a medium saute pan over medium-high heat until hot. Add the oil then the onions, thyme, half of the salt and 1 t black pepper. Cook until the onions have browned.
Step 2
Add the tamari and chicken broth and cook for 1 minute on low. Allow to cool.
Step 3
In the meantime, combine the ground beef, the rest of the salt, almond flour and eggs in a large mixing bowl. Whisk the eggs while in the bowl so you don’t have to dirty another bowl.
Step 4
Add the cooled tamari mixture and then combine the beef with the ingredients very well with a fork.
Step 5
You don’t want to overmix, but you want to mix it enough so the meatloaf does not fall apart after cooking. Take note, it is very hard to overmix when you use a fork because it takes more effort.
Step 6
Preheat an oven to 325 F. Place the ground beef on parchment lined baking sheet in a mound. Shape it into a loaf.
Step 7
Glaze it with the ketchup using a silicone brush. Bake for about 1 hour adding additional time if needed to reach an internal temperature of 165 F. Place a pan of boiling water in the oven with the loaf will help the loaf stay moist.
