This savory Cabbage Casserole is a cozy winter treat. The consistency is similar to a quiche with a creamy cabbage center, fresh herbs and an irresistible crust. The golden cheesy crust takes this over the top with a slight cheese pull when it’s hot and fresh out of the oven.
We serve this with a hefty dollop of sour cream. My husband eats slices like he does pizza which makes me all giddy because it’s just a glorious slice of vegetables – YES!!
This cabbage casserole pie is everything I love about Ukrainian and Russian recipes – using simple, basic, inexpensive ingredients to make something completely delicious.
My Mom found this recipe idea on Youtube and made it for a family dinner. Everyone was smitten and we adopted it quickly!

2. In a medium mixing bowl, add: 4 eggs, 1/4 cup sour cream and 1/4 cup mayonnaise and whisk to combine.

3. In a small mixing bowl, stir together 1/4 cup flour, 1/2 tsp baking powder and 1/2 tsp corn starch. Whisk this flour mixture into the batter until smooth and set aside.

4. Place thinly sliced cabbage into a second medium mixing bowl and sprinkle with 1/2 tsp salt. Scrunch the cabbage for 30 seconds to soften it then stir in 2 Tbsp green onion and 2 Tbsp dill.


5. Spread cabbage mixture over the bottom of your 9″ pie dish and pour the batter evenly over the top. Sprinkle the top with shredded mozzarella and bake on the center rack at 375˚F for about 35 minutes or until top is golden brown.



I love how it poofs up out of the oven and the filling is just as tempting as the crust. MMMM mm!

Just finished half tomorrow’s dinner is ready! Wow. So good for “cuisine.” We have a great Italian market here so was able to get really fresh dill they also have a big nursery). As I didn’t want to go to a big store I picked up a four-cheese Italian blend they sell for the topping. I recommend it!! I added more dill (bc duh fresh dill in NY!) and used one green onion which is more than suggested. But I’ve heard you can grow new onions from the toot end so here how’s my windowsill experiment!!
Thank you so much for sharing that with me Lauren! I’m so glad you enjoyed this recipe!
Very nice, easy to prepare recipe that I made today for dinner. A few alterations based on previous reviews… I increased the dill & scallions. For the cheese, I used Comte, which gave a bolder flavor. Also added a teaspoon of grainy mustard to the egg mixture. Loved the puffy top over a very creamy bottom. Served the dish as a side to grilled bratwurst.
Thank you for sharing with us some tips, Tina. That is very useful information for othere who may want to make some changes too. I appreciate your comments and feedback!
Made this tonight and everyone loved it. Cut back on the dill because we used dried instead of fresh. Nice to find new recipes using cabbage.
I’m so glad you enjoyed it!
Hi Natasha,
I made this for lunch, with minor substitutions, as I didn’t have some of the ingredients. It was very tasty
I was wondering if you think it would work with shredded potato instead of cabbage?
Thank you.
Hi Rita, I have not tested that with shredded potato but it sounds like a wonderful idea. You may need to increase bake time with potatoes. If you experiment, let me know how you liked the recipe.
Is it possible to make ahead, say in the morning, and bake at night?
Hi Kate, I haven’t tried that but I would be concerned that the cabbage would get juicy from the salt in the recipe if kept unbaked overnight.
Any chance this could be made the night before and baked the next morning?
Hi Sherry, I haven’t tried that but I would be concerned that the cabbage would get juicy from the salt in the recipe if kept unbaked overnight.
This was delicious and simple, thank you! I didn’t have sour cream on hand so I used plain yogurt and it turned out great. Even the cabbage-hater in our house liked it
That’s amazing! Thank you so much for sharing that with me, Vee!
I read all these 5 star comments but was a bit disappointed when I made the casserole myself. It’s pretty bland, just not enough flavor for me. It needs something.
Hi Lana, I’m sorry you didn’t enjoy it. This has been a well-loved recipe by readers. Did you possibly change, substitute or omit anything? Also, make sure you don’t use too much cabbage or it may turn out bland if you don’t increase everything proportionally.
i’m with you on this Lana. something else needs to be added – no matter what everyone else says – glad i’m not the only one thinking this….
Hi Natasha:) Do the leftovers from this recipe keep/reheat well? I’m eager to try it out, since I absolutely adore cabbage (and it’s budget-friendly too!) but as I’m only cooking for myself, I wanted to ask how you might reheat the leftovers (although to be honest I’d probably eat this cold too lol!)
Hi Emily! It reheats well! I hope you love this recipe!
This recipe was fantastic! The grocery store only had red cabbage so I ended up buying a bag of pre-shredded green cabbage, and got distracted talking on the phone while making this (*facepalm*) so long story short I forgot to add the flour with the eggs and ended up just mixing it altogether with the cabbage in a bowl and then baking it off – and despite all that, it came out amazing!! This recipe is foolproof!
I’m so happy that worked our and you enjoyed that. Thank you for sharing that with us!
I really loved this! So surprised it wasn’t a hit with my hubby, since he’s the Slav in the family. All that man will eat is soup! SO frustrating! Lol…but I love all your recipes! Another one to bookmark. I think this would be a great dish to bring to a party.
Thank you so much for sharing that with me.I’m so glad YOU enjoyed it, Elizabeth!
Do you put cabbage in raw
Hi Candy, yes that is correct.
This is an evergreen favorite of mine! Have made it three times. Love that cabbage is at the center but it’s still so delicious and indulgent. Surely my Ukrainian fiancé loves it.
I’m so happy you enjoyed that. Thank you for sharing that with us!
Made it as per recipe and we liked it. Next time I’ll add more green onions and about a teaspoon of sugar to the cabbage. Being of east European background we love cabbage and always added a bit of sugar to enhance flavor. Served this with kielbasa and it was a great accompaniment!
I’m so happy you enjoyed that. Thank you for sharing that awesome tip with us!
Does this freeze well?
Hi Jordyn, I honestly haven’t experimented with freezing this cabbage casserole so I can’t say for sure, but I think it’s worth experimenting. If you test it out, let me know how you liked it!
I tried freezing some wedges. The flavors were fine but the texture was a little spongey.
This turned out excellent – like a yummier, more creative take on a frittata. Plus, it allowed me to use the leftover cabbage I had in the fridge from the Lazy Cabbage Rolls I made a few days prior! Thank you for sharing these wonderful Russian/Ukrainian recipes with us!
That’s so great, Gina! Thank you for this wonderful feedback.
hello Natasha,made this casserole tonight and it came out perfect! Simple to make and quick to eat.We had it with a little dollop of sour cream on the side.Definitely reccomend,especially a good meal to make when it’s cold outside .
Thank you for sharing that with us, Veronika! I agree it is perfect for colder weather!
Green onions or ciboulette?
Hi Denis. this recipe calls for green onions 🙂
Oooo….how fancy. Can’t you just say chives? Lol.
Chives, while in the onion family, are different than Green Onions. Scallions and Green Onions are the same thing with different names. https://www.myrecipes.com/how-to/cooking-questions/what-are-chives-green-onions-scallions
I think this is a very simple dish. Was wondering if cooked shrimp, crab meat or cooked crawfish would make it even better?
A Louisiana gal!
Hi Renee, that sure sounds delicious! If you experiment, please let me know how it goes 🙂
I love your site. I’m not great at different dishes. Meat, rice & gravy and beans. Not a throw together kinda gal! lol Can’t wait to try the dishes I have found so far. Will let you know! Have a wonderful evening.
You also! Thank you Renee!
Thanks for the recipe! I made it and it was delious.
You’re welcome! I’m so happy you enjoyed it Isabel!
Love this recipe! Made this on Saturday morning for breakfast…reminds me of a healthy version of quiche (without the dough) but it was so good.I didn’t have cornstarch with me but I think it turned out really well! Thanks Natasha!
I’m so happy you enjoyed that. Thank you for sharing that with us!
