Keto Bacon Wrapped Meatloaf in the Air Fryer

INGREDIENTS

• 1 ⅓ pounds meat loaf mix
• 1 egg, beaten
• ⅓ cup parmesan cheese
• ½ teaspoon salt
• ¼ teaspoon black pepper
• ½ teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
• ¼ teaspoon onion powder
• 2 cloves of garlic, crushed
• 7 pieces of bacon

INSTRUCTIONS

1. Let the meat come to room temperature for best results. Then preheat the air fryer at 350°F for 5 minutes while you for the loaf.
2. Beat the egg in a large mixing bowl and then add everything except the bacon to it. I like to use a big fork to try to mix everything around without over working the ground meat. Then use my hand to form mixture into an oval or rectangle shape.
3. Take the bacon slices and wrap them all the way under the meatloaf. If you do not, the bacon will curl and disengage from the ground meat. Try to overlap the slices.
4. Once the air fryer has preheated, take out the basket and spray with nonstick cooking spray. You could line the basket with aluminum foil if you want to eliminate some of the mess. Just make sure to spray the foil with cooking spray too.
5. Cook at 380°F for 50-60 minutes or until the internal temperature is 160°F when using a meat thermometer and the bacon is cooked to your liking. Let rest for 5-10 minutes before serving.
6. Note cooking time may vary depending on your air fryer and the size of your meatloaf so check every once in a while toward the end. If you find the bacon is getting very crisp and you need ot cook it more, you can put a piece of foil over top to keep the bacon from browning.
