Instructions

In a large bowl, combine the mayonnaise, maple syrup, lemon juice, vinegar, vegetable oil, ground nutmeg, salt, and pepper. Whisk until smooth and set aside.
Shred the cabbage using a chef's knife or box grater, chop the onion finely, and grate the carrots.
Fold the cabbage, onion, and carrots into the dressing using a rubber spatula or wooden spoon until evenly coated. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for several hours or overnight to let the flavors meld.

Notes

For a crunchier texture, serve immediately after mixing instead of refrigerating overnight.
Feel free to tweak the sugar to your taste or substitute with a sweetener of choice.
Adding sliced apples or raisins can provide a delightful twist.
