Meatloaf is a classic for a reason. It’s a perfect midweek meal, and this Keto Turkey Meatloaf is also a nifty low-carb lunchbox favorite. Cooked to perfection and slathered in half a cup of sugar-free ketchup, this moist, juicy meatloaf will have mouths watering when it hits the table. Enjoy your Keto Turkey Meatloaf on its own or accompanied by a crisp salad.
Combining turkey and chicken broth ensures a rich flavor, and the clever combination of almond flour and eggs makes this dish a high-protein option for slow-release energy. For a deluxe version, you can swap out the almond flour for ground pork rinds — the aroma as this bakes quietly away in the oven will have the family asking for seconds before they’ve even been served!
Turkey is a versatile meat that is high in essential B vitamins, including B6 and niacin. It also contains choline which is reputed to reduce the risk of liver disease. This Keto Turkey Meatloaf is also rich in iron and contains selenium and zinc to support immunity and feed energy levels. It’s light but packed with nutrients that will keep you feeling full for longer.
While traditional meatloaf is prepared in a loaf tin, this recipe uses high-protein almond flour to bind the ingredients, meaning you can cook it on a baking sheet. The mixture can be fashioned into a loaf shape on the sheet, and you will find the end result retains moisture better. You want all the flavorful and savory juices, so check your Keto Turkey Meatloaf after 30 minutes with a meat thermometer, as each oven will cook at a slightly different speed.
