Start by preparing the flaxseed egg. In a small bowl, mix the ground flaxseed with 6 tablespoons of water and let it sit for at least 10 minutes until it forms a gel-like consistency.
To make the crepe batter, combine the all-purpose flour, almond milk, sparkling water, prepared flaxseed egg, 1 teaspoon salt, and 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil in a mixing bowl. Whisk until the batter is smooth and free of lumps. Set aside for 15 minutes.
While the batter rests, prepare the filling. Finely chop the white cabbage and mushrooms, and dice the onion. Mince the garlic cloves.
In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil over medium heat. Add the onion and garlic, sautéing until the onion becomes translucent, about 5 minutes.
Add the chopped mushrooms to the skillet, cooking until they release their moisture and begin to brown, about 7-10 minutes.
Add the cabbage to the mushroom mixture, along with the soy sauce, dried marjoram, and black pepper. Cook until the cabbage is tender, about 15-20 minutes. Adjust seasoning with additional salt and pepper if needed. Remove from heat and let it cool slightly.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and coat with a thin layer of vegetable oil. Pour a ladle of the crepe batter onto the skillet, swirling to form a thin, even layer. Cook for about 2 minutes until the edges lift easily, then flip and cook for another minute. Repeat until all batter is used, stacking finished crepes on a plate.
To assemble the krokiety, place about 2 tablespoons of the mushroom and cabbage filling onto the center of each crepe. Fold the sides over the filling and roll up tightly.
Pour breadcrumbs onto a flat plate. Heat extra vegetable oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat.
Carefully roll each filled crepe in the breadcrumbs, ensuring all sides are coated. Fry in the skillet until golden and crispy on all sides, about 3-4 minutes per side.
Drain the fried krokiety on paper towels to remove excess oil. Serve warm, with additional dipping sauce if desired.
