French Onion Meatloaf

Print Recipe

A savory meatloaf inspired by the flavors of French onion soup, with caramelized onions, melted cheese, and a rich beefy glaze.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 1/2 pounds ground beef
  • 1 cup French onion soup (canned or homemade)
  • 1/2 cup breadcrumbs
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
  • 1 large onion, thinly sliced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. In a large skillet, cook the sliced onion and minced garlic over medium heat until softened and caramelized, about 10–12 minutes. Set aside to cool slightly.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, combine ground beef, French onion soup, breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, parsley, Worcestershire sauce, dried thyme, salt, pepper, and half of the caramelized onions.
  4. Mix gently until just combined, then transfer the mixture to a loaf pan, shaping into a loaf.
  5. Spread the remaining caramelized onions on top of the loaf.
  6. Bake for 45–50 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 160°F (71°C).
  7. Let rest for 5 minutes before slicing and serving.

Notes

For extra richness, top with shredded Gruyère or provolone cheese during the last 5 minutes of baking.
