Who knew you could make meatloaf with oats? This is my first attempt at gluten-free meatloaf and it's adapted from Maridele's All American Meatloaf shared on allrecipes.com (I have such a love/hate relationship with that site!)
All American (gluten-free) Meatloaf
Ingredients- 2 pounds ground beef
- 1 cup quick cooking oats
- 1 onion, chopped
- 1/2 cup milk
- 2 eggs
- 1/4 cup ketchup
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 tsp garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon dried basil
- 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 2 tablespoons ketchup
- 4 slices Cheddar cheese, halved
Directions
- Preheat oven to 375F
- Mix ground beef, quick oats, onion, milk, eggs, 1/4 cup ketchup, garlic, garlic powder, salt, basil, and black pepper together in a large bowl until thoroughly combined; pat the mixture into a 9x5-inch-ish loaf in a baking dish
- Bake meatloaf in the preheated oven for 50 minutes. An instant-read meat thermometer inserted into the center of the meat loaf should read at least 160F
- Remove from oven, spread 2 tablespoons ketchup over loaf, and top with Cheddar cheese slices; return to oven and bake until cheese has melted, about 5 more minutes
It was delicious and very filling. I'm sure all that extra garlic is what makes it so delicious! Now that I've had success with oatmeal in place of bread crumbs I'm looking forward to adapting my other meatloaf recipes.
~ ENJOY!

Unless your oats are certified gluten free, you run the risk of using contaminated oats.
You can also use instant rice, or cream of rice cereal.
If you have made a GF bread, you can take a stale piece and use that in your meatloaf.
