Cabbage Pie is a hearty, savory dish featuring sautéed cabbage and onion combined with eggs and herbs, baked with or without a soft crust or batter. It’s comforting, budget-friendly, and perfect for any meal.

Ingredients

  • For the filling:
  • 1 small head green cabbage, finely shredded
  • 1 medium onion, finely chopped
  • 2 tablespoons butter or oil
  • 3 large eggs
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 tablespoon fresh dill or parsley, chopped (optional)
  • For the batter (optional):
  • 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 eggs
  • 1/2 cup milk or yogurt
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 2 tablespoons oil or melted butter

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a baking dish or oven-safe skillet.
  2. In a large skillet, heat butter or oil over medium heat. Add chopped onion and sauté until soft, about 5 minutes.
  3. Add shredded cabbage and cook for 10–15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until tender and lightly golden. Season with salt, pepper, and herbs if using. Let cool slightly.
  4. In a large bowl, beat 3 eggs and mix into the cooled cabbage mixture.
  5. If using batter: In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, 2 eggs, milk or yogurt, oil, and salt until smooth.
  6. To assemble: Pour half of the batter into the greased dish. Spread cabbage filling evenly over it. Top with remaining batter. For a crustless version, skip the batter and pour cabbage-egg mix directly into dish.
  7. Bake for 35–40 minutes or until the top is golden brown and center is set.
  8. Let cool for 10–15 minutes before slicing. Serve warm or at room temperature.

Notes

  • Drain cooked cabbage well to avoid excess moisture in the pie.
  • Add cheese to the filling for extra richness.
  • This recipe works well crustless or with a batter crust.
  • Can be made ahead and reheated for quick meals.
  • Use fresh or dried herbs to enhance flavor.
