This convenient cooking method cooks the frozen meatloaf to juicy perfection in a fraction of the time it takes in the oven. In this guide, we’ll walk you through the simple steps to air-frying your Stouffer’s Meatloaf, along with some FAQs to answer any questions you might have.

Ingredients:

  • 1 Stouffer’s Frozen Meatloaf (individual or family size)

Instructions:

  1. Preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Unwrap the frozen Stouffer’s Meatloaf and place it directly in your air fryer basket. If you’re using a family-sized meatloaf, you might need to cut it in half to fit comfortably.
  3. Cook for 20-25 minutes for an individual-sized meatloaf, or 30-35 minutes for a family-sized meatloaf. For both sizes, check for internal temperature at the thickest part of the meatloaf. It should reach 160°F (71°C) for safe consumption.
  4. Baste the meatloaf with ketchup or your favorite glaze in the last 5 minutes of cooking for a caramelized crust (optional).
  5. Let the meatloaf cool slightly before slicing and serving. Enjoy!

Tips:

  • Use parchment paper in your air fryer basket for easier cleanup.
  • If your air fryer has a tendency to run hot, you can lower the cooking temperature slightly to prevent over browning.
  • For added crispness, you can broil the meatloaf for a minute or two after air frying, but keep a close eye on it to avoid burning.
