Steps

1FOR THE GLAZE: Combine all ingredients in bowl; set aside.
2FOR THE MEATLOAF: Adjust oven rack to middle position and heat oven to 350 degrees. Process saltines in food processor until finely ground, about 30 seconds. Transfer to large bowl and stir in milk; set aside. Add mushrooms and onion to now-empty processor and pulse until finely chopped, about 12 pulses.
3Heat oil in 10-inch ovensafe nonstick skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering. Add mushroom mixture, thyme, and garlic and cook until moisture has fully evaporated and mixture is lightly browned, about 8 minutes. Transfer to plate and let cool for 5 minutes.
4Whisk egg, mustard, salt, pepper, and mushroom mixture into saltine mixture. Using your hands, mix in beef until thoroughly combined. Transfer meatloaf mixture to now-empty skillet and shape into 7 by 4-inch loaf. Bake meatloaf for 20 minutes.
5Remove skillet from oven. Using pastry brush, brush top and sides of meatloaf with glaze. Add 2 tablespoons water to skillet. Return skillet to oven and continue to bake until meatloaf registers 160 degrees, 20 to 25 minutes longer. Let cool for 5 minutes. Serve.
