Notes

  • Most Air Fryers have a maximum temperature setting of 400. The Phillips brand has a maximum temperature of 390 degrees. 
  • I love using fresh breadcrumbs in this recipe. I take about 4 slices of whatever bread we have around the house, toss 'em in the food processor for about 1 cup of breadcrumbs.
  • Adding vegetables to your meatloaf helps keep it moist and not dense.
  • Wait a few minutes before slicing your meatloaf if you don’t want it to fall apart.
  • Check on your meatloaf periodically. If it starts to get too brown during the cooking process, cover with foil until it's time to add the glaze.
