Directions
  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and prepare a loaf pan.

  4. Transfer the meat mixture into the loaf pan and shape into a smooth loaf.
  5. Whisk together glaze ingredients and spoon over the meatloaf.
  6. Bake uncovered for 45 minutes, brush with additional glaze, and bake for another 15 minutes or until internal temperature reaches 160°F (71°C).
