Cabbage pancakes - FAQ About Ingredients, Baking Time and Storage

Can I substitute all-purpose flour with a gluten-free alternative?

Yes, you can use gluten-free flour blends or almond flour as a substitute. Keep in mind the texture may vary slightly.

How long can I store leftover cabbage pancakes?

Store them in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat in a skillet or oven for best results.

Can I make these pancakes vegan?

Replace eggs with flax eggs (1 tbsp ground flaxseed + 3 tbsp water per egg) and use a plant-based yogurt instead of sour cream.

What’s the best way to keep the pancakes crispy?

Place cooked pancakes on a wire rack instead of a plate to prevent sogginess. Reheat in a dry skillet to restore crispiness.

Can I freeze cabbage pancakes for later?

Yes! Freeze them in a single layer on a baking sheet, then transfer to a freezer bag. Reheat in a skillet or toaster oven.

What other dipping sauces work besides sour cream?

Try Greek yogurt, applesauce, garlic aioli, or a spicy sriracha mayo for different flavor profiles.

How can I make these lower in carbs?

Reduce flour by half or omit it entirely, adding an extra egg to bind. You can also use grated zucchini for extra texture.

Can I use pre-shredded cabbage to save time?

Yes, pre-shredded coleslaw mix works well. Just pat it dry to remove excess moisture before mixing.

Why are my pancakes falling apart?

The batter may need more binding agents. Add an extra egg or a tablespoon more flour to help hold them together.

Can I bake these instead of frying?

Absolutely! Bake at 400°F (200°C) on a greased sheet for 15-20 minutes, flipping halfway, for a lighter option.
