THIS RECIPE IS AIR FRYER-FRIENDLY
Simply reduce the cooking time and temperature on your air fryer as shown here.*

Timing
Set air fryer timer for half the cooking time of a conventional oven. Add extra time for doneness if needed.

Temperature
Reduce regular oven temperature by 25° to 50° (not going below 350°) on your air fryer. If food is getting too dark, reduce by another 25°.

* Always follow manufacturer’s instructions.

  1. 1

    Preheat oven to 350°F.

  2. 2

  3. 3

    Bake for 40–45 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F.

  4. 4
    Remove from oven and let the meatloaf stand covered for 10–15 minutes before slicing.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great addition I have been preparing meatloaf since my children were little (now 39 and 44), but never thought to add and ranch seasonings of any kind to it. The last time I made it and my youngest told me he didn't think that I could make my meatloaf taste any better than it already had, but this one tops them all.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Best Meatloaf I make this recipe all the time. I quadruple it for a 3 lb. loaf adding 8 oz. sour cream for moisture. We love it for sandwiches! It is definitely our family’s favorite!

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Ranch meatloaf I made the meatloaf for dinner but added onions and salsa with ranch dressing in it to make it moist, it was delicious, not dry at all. For a meatloaf to be moist it must have some type of sauce inside as well as outside. There was not one piece left.

Rated 2 out of 5 by from Not sure about this I just made this and it's in the oven. I'm really concerned that it's going to be too dry to eat. Only moisture added is egg--other than the meat. I'll update this when the dish is done.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Awesomeness My Family puts Ranch on every thing .. so I knew it would be devoured. I put bacon peices in it and made a sauce with Ranch a little ketchup and added cheese than broiled the top to brown the cheese but I doubled the recipe as we have a big Family.. it is now the fave meatloaf ever!!

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Make it your own We have had this recipe many times as it is (even made meatballs instead of the loaf) but really enjoy when we mix it up and make it our own. Add in onion and green peppers or mix in diced mushroom and parmesan cheese. Easy to customize!
