Ingredients
- 2 pounds Ground turkey
- 1 cup Breadcrumbs
- 0.25 cup Milk
- 2 large Eggs
- 0.5 cup Yellow onion, finely diced
- 2 cloves Garlic, minced
- 0.25 cup Ketchup
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 2 teaspoons Dried parsley
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground black pepper
- 0.5 cup Glaze: Ketchup
- 2 tablespoons Glaze: Brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon Glaze: Apple cider vinegar
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a loaf pan or line it with parchment paper for easy removal.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground turkey, breadcrumbs, milk, eggs, onion, garlic, ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, parsley, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix until just combined; avoid overmixing, as this can make the meatloaf tough.
Step 3
Transfer the mixture into the prepared loaf pan, shaping it evenly into a loaf shape.
Step 4
In a small bowl, make the glaze by combining the ketchup, brown sugar, and apple cider vinegar. Stir until smooth.
Step 5
Spread half of the glaze evenly over the top of the meatloaf, reserving the rest for later.
Step 6
Place the meatloaf in the preheated oven and bake for 55-60 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
Step 7
With about 10 minutes left in the cooking time, remove the meatloaf from the oven and brush the remaining glaze over the top for a sticky, flavorful finish.
Step 8
Let the meatloaf rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing and serving. This allows the juices to redistribute and ensures moist, delicious slices.
Step 9
Serve warm with your favorite sides, such as mashed potatoes or steamed vegetables. Enjoy!
