Equipment
- Oven
- Large mixing bowl
- Small casserole dish
Ingredients
- 3/4 cup milk
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup old-fashioned oats uncooked
- 1 oz French onion soup mix
- 1 lb ground beef
- 1 oz brown gravy packet prepared
Instructions
- Heat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a small casserole dish lightly.
- In a large bowl combine the milk, egg, and salt, then whisk until the mixture is smooth and uniform.
- Add the old-fashioned oats, French onion soup mix, and ground beef to the bowl and fold together until evenly incorporated.
- Transfer the mixture to the prepared dish and shape it into a loaf form.
- Bake for 40–50 minutes, rotating the dish midway through baking if your oven heats unevenly, until the top is browned and the loaf is cooked through.
