Ingredients

  • 1 pound 90%-lean ground beef

  • ½ pound ground pork

  • 1 large egg, lightly beaten

  • ½ cup Italian-seasoned panko breadcrumbs

  • ¼ cup finely chopped yellow onion

  • ¼ cup chopped fresh parsley

  • 1 ½ tablespoons Worcestershire sauce

  • 2 cloves garlic, minced

  • ½ teaspoon kosher salt

  • ½ teaspoon ground pepper

  • 5 tablespoons ketchup, divided

Directions

  1. Preheat air fryer to 350°F for 5 minutes. Combine ground beef, ground pork, egg, panko, onion, parsley, Worcestershire, garlic, salt, pepper and 3 tablespoons ketchup in a large bowl; mix until well combined. Divide the mixture in half and form each half into a loaf (3-by-6-by-1 1/2 inches).

  2. Place the meatloaves in the air-fryer basket. Cook until an instant-read thermometer inserted in the center registers 155°F, about 25 minutes. Brush the meatloaves with the remaining 2 tablespoons ketchup. Continue cooking until an instant-read thermometer registers 165°F, about 3 minutes. Let the meatloaves rest for 5 minutes before slicing.

Nutrition information is calculated by a registered dietitian using an ingredient database but should be considered an estimate.

* Daily Values (DVs) are the recommended amounts of nutrients to consume each day. Percent Daily Value (%DV) found on nutrition labels tells you how much a serving of a particular food or recipe contributes to each of those total recommended amounts. Per the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the daily value is based on a standard 2,000 calorie diet. Depending on your calorie needs or if you have a health condition, you may need more or less of particular nutrients. (For example, it’s recommended that people following a heart-healthy diet eat less sodium on a daily basis compared to those following a standard diet.)
