Ingredients

½ cup ketchup

½ cup packed brown sugar

1 ½ teaspoons salt

½ teaspoon chili powder

1 ½ pounds lean ground beef

1 ½ cups croutons, crushed

1 small onion, chopped

2 eggs

¼ cup milk

¼ teaspoon ground black pepper

Directions

Gather all ingredients. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan.

Stir ketchup, brown sugar, salt, and chili powder together in a bowl until smooth.

Spread a small amount of ketchup mixture into the bottom of the prepared loaf pan.

Shape into a loaf and put into the prepared pan. Spread remaining ketchup mixture over loaf.
