Pumpkin Glazed Meatloaf

Ingredients

  • 2 pouches Cerebelly Carrot Pumpkin Purée, divided
  • ½ Cup quick or old-fashioned rolled oats
  • 1 large egg
  • ½ small onion, grated
  • 1 tsp dried thyme
  • ½ tsp garlic powder
  • ½ tsp salt
  • 1 lb lean ground beef (90/10) or ground turkey
  • 2 Tbsp tomato paste
  • ½ tsp smoked paprika

Directions

  1. Heat the oven to 375°F and line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment.
  2. In a large bowl, stir together one pouch, the oats, egg, onion, thyme, garlic powder and salt. Let it sit for 5 minutes. For a baby-friendly loaf, cut the salt to a pinch.
  3. Add the meat and mix gently with your hands just until combined. Shape into an 8x4-inch loaf on the baking sheet.
  4. Stir the second pouch with the tomato paste and smoked paprika, then spread it generously over the top and sides of the loaf.
  5. Bake for 45-55 minutes, until an instant-read thermometer reads 160°F for beef or 165°F for turkey. Rest for 10 minutes before slicing.
