Ingredients
Dipping Sauce:
- 4 tablespoons sour cream
- 1 tablespoon reduced sodium soy sauce or a gluten-free alternative
- 1 teaspoon hot sauce
Pancakes:
- 8 ounces cabbage shredded
- 4 scallions large, sliced; ½ cup
- ½ cup superfine almond flour or ¼ cup of all-purpose flour if you don't mind the carbs/gluten.
- 4 large eggs
- 1 tablespoon reduced sodium soy sauce or a gluten-free alternative
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon fresh garlic minced
- 2 tablespoons avocado oil for frying
Instructions
- Prepare the dipping sauce by mixing its ingredients (sour cream, soy sauce, and hot sauce) in a small bowl. Set aside.
- In a large mixing bowl, mix together the raw cabbage, scallions, and almond flour.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the eggs, soy sauce, black pepper, and garlic.
- Stir the egg mixture into the cabbage mixture. Mix well.
- Heat a nonstick double burner griddle or two large nonstick skillets over medium-high heat for 2-3 minutes. Add 1 tablespoon of oil to each skillet and brush to coat.
- Scoop the mixture onto the griddle using a 4-tablespoon scoop (or measuring cup) per pancake. Flatten with a spatula.
- Cook the pancakes until browned on both sides, about 3 minutes per side.
- Serve immediately with the dipping sauce.
Notes
- It's fine to use a pre-shredded coleslaw mix rather than chop a whole cabbage. I do recommend giving the mix an extra quick chop, especially if it's coarsely shredded. You want fairly fine shreds in this recipe.
- These pancakes make an excellent appetizer or side dish, but they are also hearty enough to serve as a meatless main dish if you serve four per person instead of two. Sometimes, I serve them with fried eggs for a delicious meatless meal.
- The spicy dipping sauce is phenomenal. Please make it and use it! Without it, the pancakes are very good. With it, they are amazing.
- You can keep the leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for 3-4 days. I reheat them in the microwave or eat them cold. You can also freeze them in freezer bags, separating layers with wax paper.
