Ingredients
Scale
- 2 lbs ground beef (80/20 recommended)
- 1/2 cup almond flour
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 1 large egg, lightly beaten
- 1/2 cup finely chopped onion
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce (check label for low sugar/carb)
- 1 teaspoon dried Italian seasoning
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- For the Glaze:
- 1/4 cup sugar-free ketchup or tomato paste
- 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
- 1 tablespoon erythritol or preferred keto sweetener
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a standard loaf pan or line a baking sheet with parchment paper if you prefer a free-form loaf.
- In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, almond flour, heavy cream, egg, chopped onion, minced garlic, Worcestershire sauce, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper.
- Mix all ingredients gently with your hands until just combined. Do not overmix, or the meatloaf will become tough.
- Shape the mixture into a loaf and place it in the prepared pan or on the baking sheet.
- In a small bowl, whisk together all the glaze ingredients: sugar-free ketchup, apple cider vinegar, sweetener, and Dijon mustard until smooth.
- Spread half of the glaze evenly over the top of the meatloaf.
- Bake for 45 minutes.
- Remove the meatloaf from the oven and brush the remaining glaze over the top.
- Return to the oven and bake for another 10 to 15 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 160°F (71°C).
- Let the keto meatloaf rest for 10 minutes before slicing and serving.
Notes
- For an extra moist loaf, you can substitute the heavy cream with sour cream.
- If you prefer a crunchier crust, use crushed pork rinds instead of almond flour as the binder.
- This recipe freezes well; slice it before freezing for easy reheating.
