Cabbage pie in the oven turns out fluffy, ruddy, like a sponge cake, tasty, but not sweet. To prepare the dish, it is better to use kefir of medium fat content from 2.5% to 5%. Then the dough will be even airier and more tender. Cabbage of any variety will do.

Step 2

Prepare the filling. Mix the cabbage and carrots, add salt and pepper.

Step 3

Bake the pie. Place the cabbage and carrots on the bottom of the baking dish. Pour the dough evenly on top. Bake the cabbage pie in a preheated oven for 45-50 minutes.

Cabbage pie with kefir - FAQ About Ingredients, Baking Time and Storage

Can I substitute kefir with another ingredient in the dough?

Yes, you can use buttermilk or plain yogurt thinned with a bit of milk as a substitute for kefir. The acidity helps activate the soda for a fluffy texture.

How should I store leftover cabbage pie, and how long does it last?

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven or microwave before serving.

Can I make this pie vegetarian or vegan?

For a vegetarian version, the recipe is already suitable. For vegan, replace eggs with flax eggs and use dairy-free yogurt instead of kefir.

Any tips to prevent lumps in the dough?

Sift the flour before adding it to the wet ingredients and mix gradually to ensure a smooth, lump-free batter.

What are some serving suggestions for cabbage pie?

Serve warm with a dollop of sour cream or Greek yogurt, or pair with a fresh salad for a balanced meal.

Can I freeze the cabbage pie for later?

Yes, wrap tightly in foil or plastic and freeze for up to 2 months. Thaw in the fridge overnight before reheating.

How can I adjust the recipe for a smaller portion?

Halve all ingredients and use a smaller baking dish, reducing the baking time by 10-15 minutes.
