INGREDIENTS

7 oz ground beef 93% lean

1 large egg

1 tbsp almond flour

0.25 cup yellow onion

1 clove garlic

0.5 tsp dried thyme

0.5 tsp sea salt

0.25 tsp black pepper

1 tbsp tomato paste

PREPARATION

• 1

  Preheat your oven to 375°F and line a small baking sheet with parchment paper.

• 2

  In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, egg, almond flour, finely diced onion, minced garlic, dried thyme, sea salt, and black pepper.

• 3

  Gently mix the ingredients with your hands until just combined, ensuring you do not overwork the meat to maintain a tender texture.

• 4

  Shape the meat mixture into a uniform 6-inch long loaf and place it on the prepared baking sheet.

• 5

  In a small bowl, whisk together the tomato paste, apple cider vinegar, and maple syrup until smooth to create the savory glaze.

• 6

  Brush the glaze evenly over the top and sides of the meatloaf using a pastry brush or spoon.

• 7

  Bake for 35 to 40 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 160°F.

• 8

  While the meatloaf rests for 5 minutes, steam the green beans for 5 to 7 minutes until they are bright green and crisp-tender.

• 9

  Slice the meatloaf into thick pieces and serve immediately alongside the steamed green beans.
