This meatloaf contains a mixture of meat & seasonings and it’s topped with a delicious zesty topping!
Why Make Meatloaf in the Air Fryer
A classic meatloaf is a favorite meal and we love this air fryer version for a quick weeknight dinner.
this can be baked in about half of the time compared to an oven recipe. the fat drips away into the pan so the meat doesn’t cook in the fat. this makes 2 smaller meatloaves so they’re easier to handle (and you get more of the crispy edges) cleanup is a breeze (I have the Cosori 5.8QT XL and a quick rinse and it goes into the dishwasher)
No Air Fryer? No problem!

Ingredients
MEAT We use lean ground beef (80/20), however, a combination of ground beef and ground turkey or pork can work just as well. VEGGIES Finely diced bell pepper, onions, parsley, and garlic add flavor. BINDER & SEASONINGS Breadcrumbs are mixed together with milk and egg yolk, Parmesan cheese, and a handful of Italian seasoning.
If you’ve never had chili sauce, it is like a very zesty tangy ketchup with tons of flavor. It’s amazing combined with BBQ sauce and put on burgers and ribs.
How to Make Air Fryer Meatloaf
Air fryer meatloaf is a super quick and easy way to put a delicious meal on the table, and it takes just a few easy steps! Remove meatloaves from the air fryer & allow to rest 5 minutes before slicing.
Recipe Tips
Don’t overmix the meat, mix just until combined. Preheat the air fryer before adding the meatloaf. Air Fryers can vary so be sure to use an instant read thermometer to check the internal temperature of the meatloaf and ensure it reaches 165° F. Check the meatloaf early to ensure it doesn’t overcook. Add more time as needed. Rest the meatloaf before slicing so it doesn’t fall apart. Keep leftovers in a sealed container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days and reheat in the air fryer or the microwave.
