For baked cabbage pies, you will need to make yeast dough, prepare the cabbage and onion filling, put the pies in the oven, and then eat them with great pleasure!

How to cook Cabbage Pies

Step 1

Add sugar, salt, yeast and butter to the sifted flour. Pour in water and mix. Knead the dough until smooth for about 15 minutes, then cover with a towel and leave in a warm place for 60 minutes.

Step 2

Prepare the filling: place the cabbage and onion in a frying pan with heated oil, add salt, stir and simmer until soft (about 15 minutes), stirring occasionally.

Step 3

Divide the dough into equal parts and roll out flat cakes 0.5 cm thick. Put a little filling in the center of each flat cake and pinch the dough, forming a pie.

Step 4

Place the blanks on a baking sheet, brush with yolk and place in a preheated oven for 20 minutes.

Cabbage Pies - FAQ About Ingredients, Baking Time and Storage

Can I use a different type of flour for the dough?

Yes, you can substitute all-purpose flour with whole wheat flour or a gluten-free blend, but the texture may vary slightly. Whole wheat flour yields a denser dough, while gluten-free flour may require a binder like xanthan gum.

How can I make this recipe vegan?

Replace the butter with a plant-based alternative (like coconut oil or margarine) and use a flaxseed or chia egg instead of the yolk for brushing. Ensure the sugar is vegan-friendly if needed.

Can I freeze the cabbage pies after baking?

Absolutely! Let the pies cool completely, then store them in an airtight container or freezer bag for up to 3 months. Reheat in the oven at 350°F (175°C) for 10-15 minutes until warmed through.

What can I use instead of cabbage for the filling?

Try sautéed spinach, mushrooms, or a mix of grated carrots and potatoes. Adjust cooking time as needed to ensure the filling is soft before assembling.

How do I prevent the dough from sticking when rolling?

Lightly flour your work surface and rolling pin, or place the dough between two sheets of parchment paper for easier handling without excess flour.

Can I make these pies ahead of time?

Yes! Assemble the pies (without baking) and refrigerate for up to 24 hours. Brush with yolk and bake just before serving for the freshest result.

What’s the best way to reheat leftover pies?

For crispy results, reheat in a 350°F (175°C) oven for 5-8 minutes. A microwave works for speed but may soften the crust.

How can I add more protein to this dish?

Mix crumbled tofu, cooked lentils, or shredded chicken into the filling. Season well to complement the cabbage and onions.
