Cabbage Casserole Recipe
This is one of the best cabbage meals you’ll ever have. Ultra cheesy cabbage pie is bursting with rich flavor. It is made using simple ingredients like shredded cabbage, mozzarella cheese, and eggs. We like to serve this cabbage casserole with sour cream or greek yogurt and some freshly chopped parsley.
INGREDIENTS
- 4 large eggs
- ¼ cup plain low-fat greek yogurt
- ¼ cup mayonnaise, I used vegan mayonnaise
- ¼ cup flour, gluten free blend or regular all purpose, see notes
- 1 teaspoon baking powder, gluten-free if neccessary
- 1 teaspoon cornstarch
- 1 pound cabbage, about 6 cups thinly sliced
- 1 teaspoon salt or to taste
- Pinch of black pepper
- 1 ⅓ cup mozzarella cheese, grated
- Butter for greasing the baking dish
- Freshly chopped parsley for garnish
INSTRUCTIONS
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit and grease an 8 or 9-inch round baking dish with butter or neutral cooking oil spray.
- In a medium mixing bowl, add eggs, yogurt, and mayo and whisk until blended. Set aside.
- In a large mixing bowl combine flour, black pepper, baking powder, and corn starch. Whisk flour mixture into the batter until smooth.
- In another mixing bowl add cabbage and 1 teaspoon salt. Massage the cabbage well to soften and release juices and for the cabbage to absorb the salt well.
- Layer the cabbage evenly across the baking dish. Pour in the batter.
- Sprinkle grated mozzarella cheese on top and bake for about 35-40 minutes or until the top I golden brown and the cabbage pie has set.
- Remove from the oven and let set for 15 minutes before cutting into slices. Garnish with parsley yand serve with yogurt or sour cream.

NOTES
- Flour - I like to use King's Arthur Measure Measure for Measure, Schar Universal, or Mix C, Bobs Red Mill 1 to 1 with xantham gum is preferred but it can be without too. Also, single-ingredient flours such as oat flour (you can easily do it yourself by grinding the oats in a coffee grinder), tapioca, or cassava flour will work just fine.
- This cabbage pie can also be dairy free - use vegan mayonnaise (it’s quite popular in Europe and the flavor is on par with the original, even better!), soy yogurt, or coconut yogurt. Any plant-based yogurt will do, just make sure it's thick as sour cream or creme fraiche. And yes, the flavor is slightly different, but if you are dairy free you already know that and are used to it. We make it with soy products too!
- Slice the cabbage quite thin, just like you would for a coleslaw. We can't work with long strips either. Medium short and very thin slices are ideal for the pie to cook through and as a bonus, it's easier to cut the pie into slices without it falling apart in seconds.
- It has great texture - Soft on the inside and crispy on the outside. This cabbage casserole flavor is mild but savory. Boost the overall taste with extra herbs, spices, sun-dried tomatoes, olives, tomatoes, or carrots. All are very welcome and make a great breakfast casserole.
