Equipment

  • Large mixing bowl
  • Non-stick skillet
  • Whisk
  • Measuring cups and spoons

Ingredients

Cabbage Pancakes

  • 2 cups cabbage, finely shredded 150g / 5.3oz
  • 2 large eggs
  • ½ cup almond flour 56g / 2oz
  • ¼ cup coconut flour 30g / 1oz
  • ½ tsp baking powder
  • ¼ cup unsweetened almond milk 60ml / 2 fl oz
  • ¼ tsp salt
  • ¼ tsp black pepper
  • 2 tbsp olive oil or avocado oil for frying

Spicy Dipping Sauce

  • ¼ cup soy sauce or coconut aminos 60ml / 2 fl oz
  • 1 tbsp apple cider vinegar
  • 1 tbsp erythritol or preferred keto sweetener, granulated
  • 1 tsp sesame oil
  • ½ tsp chili flakes adjust to taste
  • ½ tsp minced garlic
  • ½ tsp minced ginger

Instructions

  • In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded cabbage, eggs, almond flour, coconut flour, baking powder, almond milk, salt, and pepper. Mix until well combined and let the mixture sit for 5 minutes to thicken.
  • Heat the olive or avocado oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Once hot, spoon in the cabbage batter to form small pancakes, about 1/4 cup per pancake. Flatten slightly with the back of the spoon.
  • Cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side or until golden brown and cooked through. Transfer to a plate lined with paper towels to absorb any excess oil.
  • For the dipping sauce, whisk together soy sauce or coconut aminos, apple cider vinegar, erythritol, sesame oil, chili flakes, minced garlic, and ginger in a small bowl until the erythritol has dissolved.
  • Serve the keto cabbage pancakes warm with the spicy dipping sauce on the side.

Notes

If you prefer a milder dipping sauce, reduce the amount of chili flakes. The erythritol can be substituted with any keto-friendly sweetener of your choice. For a nut-free version, substitute almond flour with ground sunflower seed meal.
