Ingredients
- 2 lbs ground beef
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1/2 cup almond flour
- 1/4 cup heavy cream
- 2 large eggs
- 1 small onion, finely chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
- 1 tbsp yellow mustard
- 1 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp black pepper
- 1/2 cup sugar-free ketchup
- 1 tbsp yellow mustard (for topping)
- 1 tbsp pickle relish (optional, for topping)
Instructions
- Preheat and Prepare: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease a loaf pan.
- Mix the Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, shredded cheddar cheese, grated Parmesan cheese, almond flour, heavy cream, eggs, chopped onion, minced garlic, Worcestershire sauce, mustard, salt, and pepper. Mix everything until well incorporated, but don’t overwork the meat.
- Shape the Meatloaf: Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking sheet or loaf pan, shaping it into a loaf. Make sure it’s even for consistent cooking.
- Bake: Place the meatloaf in the preheated oven and bake for about 45-55 minutes, or until the meat is cooked through and a meat thermometer reads 160°F (71°C).
- Add Toppings: In a small bowl, mix the sugar-free ketchup with 1 tablespoon of mustard. Spread this mixture over the top of the meatloaf in the last 10 minutes of baking for a tangy glaze. If desired, add a bit of pickle relish on top for an extra burst of flavor.
- Rest and Serve: Once cooked, let the meatloaf rest for about 10 minutes before slicing. This helps it set and makes it easier to slice.
