Instructions
 

  • To make your Beyond Meat meatloaf, start with your protein in a bowl. The process is essentially a dump-and-stir method. The items can be added in any order. However, this is how we add them.
    A white bowl with Beyond Meat and a wooden spoon.
  • Dice onions and add to the mixture.

  • Add the flax egg or egg (whisked) to the bowl.
  • Measure out your breadcrumbs or panko and add them to the mixture bowl.
  • Dump the spices into the bowl.
  • Add the ketchup and liquid smoke to the mixture.
  • Stir to combine all ingredients. (It's okay to use your hands!)
    All ingredients are mixed thoroughly in the white bowl.
  • Shape the mixture into a loaf shape. Put the meatloaf into a baking dish lined with parchment paper. Bake at 375°F for 35 minutes.
    Place the mixture into a parchment loaf pan and place it in a loaf.
  • Mix the glaze ingredients together.
    In a black bowl, combine the glaze ingredients to create the mixture.
  • Remove the meatloaf from the oven.
  • Using a big spoon or a pastry brush, add the glaze to the meatloaf.
    Using a spoon or brush, add the glaze to the loaf.
  • Return the Beyond Meat Meatloaf to the oven and continue cooking at the same temperature for 25-30 minutes.  Let the Beyond Meat Meatloaf stand for 10 minutes. This will help the ingredients unify, and it will make cutting it easier.

Notes

  • Can substitute an egg with a flax egg to make vegan. To make a flax egg, mix one tablespoon ground flaxseed meal with three tablespoons of water. Mix and chill in the fridge for 15 minutes to set and thicken.
  • You can add vegetables to this recipe. Nice additions are ½ of diced carrots or ¾ c of chopped bell pepper. If you enjoy mushrooms, you can also add them to your meatloaf. Just be sure to dice them very small so they cook through.
  • If you want to make Paleo Meatloaf, you can sub out the breadcrumbs and sub in cassava flour or almond flour.
  • Do not skip the resting time for this Beyond Meat meatloaf. Letting the loaf rest helps it firm up, making it easier to slice without falling apart.
  • Use a serrated knife to cut your meatloaf into slices. This type of knife will help prevent the meatloaf from breaking apart when cutting.
  • You need to check on your meatloaf every so often. You need to check to ensure it isn’t crisping too quickly or burning. If you notice that the top of your meatloaf is starting to burn, you can place foil on top to help prevent it. 
  • Don’t try to rush this meatloaf recipe by increasing the temperature. Cooking at a lower temperature helps to keep the meatloaf moist.
  • Cooking times may vary a little depending on how you shape your loaf.
