    Mine separated while baking in oven. What did I do wrong? The top was fluffy egg and bottom dense cornmeal.

    Thanks for the recipe. I live in a predominantly Ukrainian community, though I'm not Ukrainian myself. Most ot the nachinka around here is not quite so rich. I don't think they use butter, no onions, and they do add nutmeg/allspice sometimes. And of course, most of them don't use recipes!

    This sounds very good. I am wheat intolerant and the fact that this does not have any flour is wanting me to make this even more! Bookmarked!

    I am anxious to try this recipe. My family have Polish ancestry and I know that along the way I have eaten something very similar. Thank you so much for this.
