Looking for more easy and meaty vegan dinner recipes? Check out my Impossible Meatballs, Vegan Shepherd’s Pie, Vegan Kofta, and Vegan Wellington. I love using vegan meats to recreate classic family dinners, like Vegan Swedish Meatballs and Vegan Chicken and Dumplings, but nothing quite says “old-fashioned family meal” like meatloaf! While my Best Vegan Meatloaf has always been a hit at the dinner table, this ultra-meaty and vegan cheese-stuffed Impossible Meatloaf is quickly becoming a new favorite. Save the mushrooms and lentils for my Lentil Loaf—this Impossible meat recipe is made almost entirely with vegan ground Impossible meat, so it looks and tastes just like real meatloaf. The best part? The middle is stuffed with vegan mozzarella cheese! If the meaty and juicy flavors don’t get everyone to the dinner table ASAP, the ooey gooey cheese in every slice will.
Why this is the best vegan meatloaf recipe
As close to real meatloaf as it gets – I love lentils, chickpeas, and mushrooms in vegan meatloaf, but this version made with Impossible ground meat is so realistic that even the meat eaters at the table won’t be able to tell the difference. Crave-worthy flavors – Tender and juicy ground “meat”, simple savory seasonings, and an irresistible glaze make this meatloaf a true crowd-pleaser! Surprisingly easy – With only 10 minutes of prep, this is a mostly hands-off recipe you can turn to for simple weeknight dinners.
How to make Impossible meatloaf
Find the complete recipe with measurements in the recipe card below. Mix all of the vegan meatloaf ingredients (except the cheese) in a large bowl until well combined. Shape the “meat” mixture into a loaf shape and place it on a prepared baking sheet. Make a well in the middle for the shredded cheese. Use your hands to cover the cheese and re-shape the loaf. Whisk the ketchup, brown sugar, and Worcestershire sauce together in a small bowl. Pour half of the glaze over the loaf. Bake the meatloaf for 45 minutes, then take it out of the oven. Turn up the heat and pour the rest of the glaze on top. Bake for another 15 minutes. Once it’s done, take the Impossible burger meatloaf out of the oven and let it rest for 10 minutes before slicing and serving. Enjoy!
