Brown Sugar Meatloaf

Certainly! Here’s a simple and delicious recipe for Brown Sugar Meatloaf that combines the savory flavors of ground meat with the sweet undertones of brown sugar. This dish is perfect for a comforting family dinner.

Ingredients:

• 1 1/2 pounds ground beef (preferably lean)
• 1/2 cup milk
• 2 eggs
• 1 1/2 teaspoons salt
• 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
• 1 small onion, finely chopped
• 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
• 3/4 cup finely crushed saltine crackers or breadcrumbs
• 1/2 cup ketchup
• 1/2 cup brown sugar
• 1 teaspoon mustard (optional for glaze)

Instructions:

Preparing the Meatloaf:

1. Preheat Oven: Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). This ensures the oven is at the right temperature when you’re ready to bake the meatloaf.
2. Mix Wet Ingredients: In a large bowl, lightly beat the eggs, and then mix in the milk. This will be the base for binding the meatloaf.
3. Add Dry Ingredients: To the egg and milk mixture, add the salt, black pepper, chopped onion, and ground ginger. Stir until these ingredients are well combined.
4. Incorporate Meat and Crackers: Add the ground beef and crushed saltine crackers (or breadcrumbs) to the bowl. Mix everything together until well combined. It’s often easiest to use your hands for this step, but make sure they are clean!
5. Form the Meatloaf: Transfer the meat mixture into a lightly greased loaf pan, or shape it into a loaf and place it on a greased baking sheet. The loaf pan helps the meatloaf maintain its shape, but the baking sheet method allows for more of the surface to caramelize.
