Instructions
Step 1: Prepare The Meatloaf Mixture
Soak The Oats:
In a large mixing bowl, place the old-fashioned rolled oats. Pour the milk over them and stir well until the oats are fully coated. Let the mixture sit for about 15 minutes to soften and absorb the liquid. This ensures the oats integrate smoothly into the meatloaf without making it too dry or doughy.
Combine Ingredients:
Once the oats have softened, add the ground beef, beaten eggs, dry onion soup mix, minced garlic, Worcestershire sauce, and ketchup. Use your hands to mix everything together until evenly combined. This ensures the loaf will hold together well during cooking.
Step 2: Shape And Bake
Shape The Meatloaf:
Transfer the meat mixture to an oiled 9×9 inch baking dish. Shape it into a loaf about 1 ¾ inches thick. This promotes even baking, ensuring the meatloaf cooks uniformly.
First Bake:
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Place the dish in the oven and bake for 30 minutes to allow the meatloaf to set.
Step 3: Add The Topping
Prepare The Topping:
While the meatloaf is baking, mix together the ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, and mustard in a small bowl. This creates the zesty topping that will complement the savory loaf.
