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
    Mix all ingredients together in a bowl, but avoid excessive handling for a moist meatloaf. Form into a loaf and place in a baking dish or loaf pan.
  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 HVR Makes Meatloaf a Superstar! HVR gives Meatloaf Superstar Status! I love this basic recipe and usually sneak in some fresh vegetables that I have on hand...like onion, bell pepper, garlic, carrots, etc. Delicious with tomato based basting or serve with gravy.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Moist and flavorful I loved that this recipe is for a smaller loaf than other popular recipes. My teenaqer really enjoyed it while it wasn't my husband's favorite, but he said that he would eat it again.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Replace ketchup topping with ranch! This is a quick and easy, husband-pleasing recipe. I like to mix in some cheese with the meat and then top with one of the flavored ranch dressings (like bacon or sriracha) instead of ketchup on top.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Super easy & super delish Have made this several times & is always super easy & super delish. Takes the hard work & guess work out of tackling meatloaf making. The ranch gives it a nice kick & punch of flavor.
