Gluten-Free Ham Loaf

Ham loaf might not be new to you, but was new for me. I was looking for a way to use up some ham and came across a ham loaf recipe. I then looked up other similar recipes and came up with a combination of things I liked best about each. We really enjoyed this ham loaf and I know I’ll be making it again.
I have seen recipes for larger loaves, but they take longer to cook (up to 2 hours). An hour cooking time is pushing it for me. I put the loaf together in the morning, placed it in the loaf pan, covered it with foil, and refrigerated it until evening. Then while the oven was preheating I made the glaze to go on top.
Most glaze recipes use some vinegar with the water, or even all vinegar. My family does not like vinegar and I was afraid it would ruin the ham loaf for them. Feel free to substitute apple cider vinegar for part of the water in the glaze.
Ingredients:
1 lb. cooked ham, ground
1/2 lb. ground turkey (uncooked)
1/2 c. milk or substitute (I used almond milk)
1/2 c. instant potato flakes (most are gluten free, check the label)
1 egg
1/4 tsp. pepper
1 tsp. onion powder 1/4 – 1/3 c. chopped onion
Glaze
6 Tb. water or apple cider vinegar
1/2 c. brown sugar
1 Tb. mustard
Instructions:
Grind the cooked ham by finely chopping it in a food processor. (If you have a meat grinder that should work too.)
Place all the loaf ingredients in the bowl of your stand mixer and mix on low for about a minute of just until all the ingredients are well combined (no lumps of potato flakes).
Or put the ingredients in a large bowl and mix by hand.
Press the mixture together and place it in a greased/sprayed 9 x 5 inch loaf pan.
Press it into a loaf shape.
Combine the glaze ingredients in a small sauce pan and heat until boiling. Boil a couple of minutes, then pour over the loaf.
Bake the loaf at 375° for about 45 – 55 minutes, basting once or twice.
