INGREDIENTS

4 oz ground turkey

0.5 slice bacon

1 large egg

1 tbsp almond flour

2 tbsp sugar-free BBQ sauce

0.25 cup yellow onion

1 tsp garlic powder

1 tsp smoked paprika

0.25 tsp sea salt

0.25 tsp black pepper

PREPARATION

• 1

  Preheat your oven to 375°F and line a small baking dish or loaf pan with parchment paper.

• 2

  Finely dice the yellow onion so it incorporates easily into the meat mixture.

• 3

  In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground turkey, egg, almond flour, diced onion, garlic powder, smoked paprika, sea salt, and black pepper.

• 4

  Gently mix the ingredients by hand until just combined, being careful not to overwork the meat to ensure a tender texture.

• 5

  Shape the mixture into a compact loaf and place it in the center of the prepared baking dish.

• 6

  Brush 1 tablespoon of the sugar-free BBQ sauce evenly over the top and sides of the loaf.

• 7

  Lay the bacon slices across the top of the loaf, tucking the ends underneath to secure them.

• 8

  Bake for 25 minutes, then remove from the oven and brush the remaining tablespoon of BBQ sauce over the bacon.

• 9

  Increase the oven temperature to 400°F and bake for an additional 10 minutes until the bacon is crispy and the internal temperature reaches 165°F.

• 10

  Allow the meatloaf to rest for 5 minutes before slicing to keep the juices intact.
