This delicious meatloaf recipe, adapted for use in a slow cooker can be served hot or cold.
The original version of this recipe is cooked in a bain-marie in the oven but as I didn't have a tin large enough, I thought I would try this in the slow cooker

Printable 🖨 shopping 🛒 list & 👩🍳 method for this recipe
- 1 tablespoon sunflower oil

Method
- Lightly grease the crockpot

Serving suggestions
Serve sliced, with boiled potatoes, gravy of your choice and glazed carrots.
Variations
Line the tin with streaky bacon, leaving some extra to fold over the top and this dish will go even further
Chef's notes
Using a large slow cooker instead of a small bread tin, the depth of the meatloaf is quite thin, however, it is still very moist and perfectly acceptable. If were sure you liked the taste and texture of this meatloaf, you could double the quantities and make one of a size that would slice like a conventional meatloaf. You would need to feed a large family (or a small institution) to make a meatloaf of this size. Use a mix of minced beef and pork.
