Begin by finely shredding the cabbage: cut the cabbage into quarters, remove the core, and slice thinly to create fine shreds.
Peel and grate the carrots using a box grater or a food processor equipped with a grating attachment.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded cabbage and grated carrots. Toss them together until evenly mixed.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the vegan mayonnaise, unrefined cane sugar, apple cider vinegar, Dijon mustard, celery seed, salt, and black pepper until smooth and well combined.
Pour the dressing over the cabbage and carrot mixture. Use a spatula or wooden spoon to thoroughly coat the vegetables with the dressing.
Cover the bowl and refrigerate the coleslaw for at least 1 hour before serving to allow the flavors to meld together, enhancing the taste.
Before serving, give the coleslaw a good stir, and adjust any seasonings to taste, adding a little more salt, sugar, or vinegar if desired.
Serve chilled as a side to your favorite vegan dishes. Enjoy your homemade KFC-style vegan coleslaw!
