Ingredients

  • 1 lb ground beef
  • 1 large egg
  • ½ cup breadcrumbs
  • 1 cup mixed berries
  • 2 tbsp sugar
  • 2 tbsp ketchup

Instructions

  1. 1

    Preheat oven to 375°F. In a bowl, mix 1 lb ground beef, 1 egg, and 1/2 cup breadcrumbs until just combined. Shape into a loaf and place in a 9x5 inch loaf pan.

  2. 2

    In a small saucepan, combine 1 cup mixed berries and 2 tbsp sugar. Cook over medium heat, stirring, until berries soften and release juices, about 5 minutes. Set aside.

  3. 3

    Spread 2 tbsp ketchup over the meatloaf, then spoon the berry compote on top. Bake until the meatloaf is cooked through and reaches 160°F, about 25 minutes. Let rest 5 minutes before slicing.
