Step‑by‑Step Instructions for The Classic Meatloaf Recipe
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare your baking pan by greasing a 9x5-inch loaf pan or lining a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, combine ground beef, onion, eggs, milk, breadcrumbs, garlic, ketchup, parsley, Worcestershire sauce, salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning. Mix gently until just combined.
- Shape the mixture into a loaf, about 2 inches thick, and place it into the prepared pan.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the glaze ingredients and brush half over the meatloaf.
- Bake for about 45 minutes, or until nicely browned. Brush on the remaining glaze halfway through cooking.
- Check for doneness, aiming for an internal temperature of 160°F (71°C). Bake longer if necessary.
- Let it rest for 10-15 minutes before slicing and serving.
