In a large mixing bowl, combine the coconut flour, arrowroot powder, and a pinch of salt. Stir to blend evenly.
In a separate bowl, beat the 3 large eggs and add 4 tablespoons of water. Whisk until fully combined.
Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring continuously until you form a dough. Knead it lightly and let it rest, covered, for about 10 minutes.
While the dough is resting, prepare the filling. In a separate large bowl, combine the ground pork, chopped cabbage, grated carrots, sliced green onions, minced ginger, minced garlic, coconut aminos, sesame oil, salt, and pepper. Mix until the ingredients are evenly incorporated.
Roll out the dough between two pieces of parchment paper until it's about 1/8 inch thick. Use a round cookie cutter or a glass to cut out circles of about 3 inches in diameter.
Place a tablespoon of the pork filling in the center of each dough circle. Fold the circle in half and pinch the edges to seal, creating a half-moon shape. You can crimp the edges to ensure they're sealed tight.
In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of coconut oil over medium-high heat. Place pot stickers in the skillet, flat-side down, being careful not to overcrowd them. Cook until the bottoms are golden brown, about 2-3 minutes.
Once the bottoms are browned, add 1/4 cup of water to the skillet and cover immediately to steam the pot stickers. Let them steam for about 5 minutes.
Remove the lid and continue cooking until the water evaporates, and the bottoms are crisp again, about 1-2 minutes more.
Repeat the process with the remaining pot stickers, adding more coconut oil as needed.
Serve warm with additional coconut aminos for dipping.
