Gluten Free Meatloaf

Jump to Recipe - Print Recipe

Juicy and tender no-fail gluten free meatloaf is a budget friendly meal everyone loves.

Gluten Free Meatloaf

Delicious gluten-free meatloaf made with sweet onions is an easy weeknight meal. In place of regular breadcrumbs, you can simply use gluten free breadcrumbs.  

Topped with velvety smooth gluten-free mushroom gravy, it’s amazing. If you follow my tips for perfect no-fail meatloaf, you’ll get two thumbs up from everyone at your table.

What will you need to make delicious no-fail gluten free meatloaf?

For this recipe, you may find you already have all the ingredients in your kitchen: ground beef, onion, gluten-free bread crumbs (I use Schar’s), an egg, salt, pepper, and gluten-free ketchup.

How to make gluten free meatloaf

*Free printable recipe card is available at the end of the post.

So are you ready to make delicious gluten-free meatloaf? Then here we go.

In a large bowl, combine ground beef, breadcrumbs, and chopped onions. Also, season the mixture with salt and pepper. Then add your beaten egg to the meat mixture and mix thoroughly.

Pop your meatloaf in the oven. About 15 minutes before it’s done, take the meatloaf out of the oven and brush ketchup over the top of the meatloaf. Finally, put your meatloaf back in the oven so the ketchup will form a nice glaze.

Pro tips and recipe notes

  • Using this type of broiler pan with a grid top is what I recommend. Line the bottom drip pan of the broiler pan with foil.
  • Form the meat mixture into a loaf shape and place it on the slotted upper part of the broiler pan. Allowing the fat to drain into the bottom drip pan keeps your meatloaf from getting mushy.
  • Leftovers will keep in an airtight container in the fridge for 4 days
  • You can freeze your meatloaf in an airtight container for up to 3 months. Let the meat cool down before placing it in the container. 

And that’s it. Perfect meatloaf every time. So it doesn’t crumble, be sure to let the meatloaf sit for 5 minutes before slicing.

You’re going to love this filling and flavorful no-fail gluten-free meatloaf. With homemade mashed potatoes, it’s delicious. And best of all, it’s gluten-free.

    This looks delicious! We are gluten free in our house and I often cook with ground beef, so I’ll definitely give this a go. It looks like a great mid-week dinner. Thanks for sharing

      You’re welcome. I’m so glad you’re here. Sometimes folks will add their favorite chopped veggies to their meatloaf (my clan just doesn’t prefer it that way) but you could give it a whirl.
