Equipment

  • Mixing Bowl
  • Baking Sheet
  • Parchment Paper
  • Oven

Ingredients
  

Cabbage Bread Dough

  • 2 cups shredded cabbage finely shredded, green or savoy
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour or gluten-free blend
  • 1 tsp baking soda also known as bread soda
  • 1 tsp salt adjust to taste
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper adjust to taste
  • 2 tbsp olive oil adds moisture
  • 1/4 cup warm water if needed for consistency

Optional Add-Ons

  • rosemary or thyme herbs for extra flavor
  • flax or chia seeds for added nutrition
  • shredded cheese for extra flavor boost

Instructions
 

  • Wash and pat dry the cabbage. Shred it finely using a grater or sharp knife.
  • Lightly salt the cabbage and let it sit for 10 minutes to release excess moisture. Squeeze out any remaining liquid.
  • In a large bowl, combine flour, baking soda, salt, and black pepper.
  • Beat eggs in a separate bowl, then add olive oil and mix well.
  • Make a well in the dry ingredients and pour in the egg mixture. Stir gently.
  • Gradually add the shredded cabbage, folding it into the mixture.
  • If the dough is too dry, add warm water one tablespoon at a time.
  • Let the dough rest for 10-15 minutes to allow ingredients to blend.
  • Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Shape the dough into a round loaf or small rolls and place on the baking sheet.
  • Bake for 25-35 minutes until golden brown and sounds hollow when tapped.
  • Let cool for 10 minutes before slicing and serving.

Notes

Customize with your favorite seasonings like garlic powder, onion powder, or sesame seeds. Be sure to remove excess moisture from the cabbage for the best texture.
