Savory Vegan Meatloaf

Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Savory Vegan Meatloaf.

1. Step 1

   Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan.

2. Step 2

   In a skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the chopped onion and garlic, sautéing until fragrant and slightly softened, about 3 to 5 minutes.

3. Step 3

   In a large mixing bowl, combine the water and egg substitute. Add the sautéed onion and garlic mixture, vegan beef crumbles, chopped baguette, 1/4 cup of ketchup, and chopped parsley. Mix everything together by hand until well combined.

4. Step 4

   Transfer the mixture into the prepared loaf pan, spreading it evenly.

5. Step 5

   Bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes.

6. Step 6

   While the loaf is baking, mix the remaining 1/4 cup of ketchup with the vegan brown sugar in a small bowl.

7. Step 7

   After 30 minutes, remove the loaf from the oven and brush the top with the ketchup mixture. Return it to the oven and continue baking until browned and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out mostly clean, about 30 more minutes.

8. Step 8

   Let the meatloaf rest for about 10 minutes before slicing and serving.
