Ingredients
  

For the Meatloaf:

  • 2 pounds ground beef lean or normal
  • 1 medium onion minced
  • 2 tablespoons fresh parsley chopped
  • 3 cloves garlic minced
  • 2 large eggs at room temperature
  • 2 tablespoons unsweetened applesauce
  • 1/2 cup blanched almond flour
  • 2 teaspoons garlic powder
  • 2 teaspoons onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 2 teaspoons kosher salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper

For the Sauce:

  • 1/2 cup no-salt added canned tomato sauce
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons apple cider vinegar
  • 2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
  • 2 tablespoons unsweetened applesauce
  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 375F and grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan. You can also line a pan with parchment paper that hangs over the edges, to make it easy to remove the meatloaf.
  • In a large bowl, add all of the meatloaf ingredients except the ground beef, and mix with a spoon.
  • Add the ground beef to the bowl and use your hands to mix everything together.
  • Transfer the meat to the loaf pan and smooth the top into an even layer.
  • Add all of the sauce ingredients to a mixing bowl (it can be the same bowl you used earlier) and whisk to combine.
  • Spread the sauce over the top of the meatloaf.
  • Bake the meatloaf in the center rack of the oven for 60-70 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165F.
  • Cool the meatloaf on a wire rack for 15-20 minutes before slicing and serving. This will allow the meatloaf to firm up so it stays in one piece when slice it.

Notes

  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for 4 days, or in the freezer for 6 months.
  • To reheat, add slices of meatloaf to a baking dish, and drizzle with beef or chicken broth. Cover with aluminum foil and heat in a 250F oven for 20 minutes.
  • The meat amount is not exact. It's totally fine if you have a little more or a little less than 2 pounds.
  • Lean beef will fall apart a little more easily than regular ground beef, but both work great.
