1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon dried thyme
Salt & pepper to taste
Mix everything until well combined. Be careful not to overmix, as this can lead to a denser loaf.
5. Incorporate the Onions
Gently fold the cooled caramelized onions into the meat mixture. This adds a wonderful depth of flavor to your meatloaf.
6. Shape and Bake
Transfer the mixture into a greased loaf pan or shape it into a loaf on a baking sheet.
Bake in the preheated oven for 1 hour or until the internal temperature reaches 160°F (70°C). This ensures your meatloaf is fully cooked and juicy.
7. Rest and Serve
After baking, let the meatloaf rest for 10 minutes before slicing. This rest period allows the juices to redistribute, making for a more flavorful and moist serving.
🍽️ Serving Suggestions
Serve your French Onion Meatloaf with a side of creamy mashed potatoes, steamed vegetables, or a fresh green salad. For an extra touch, drizzle with a little extra beef broth or a savory gravy.
