Halved (more or less) the recipe and it was still FANTASTIC and a wonderful way to use up a cup of bran flakes (ground fine in food processor) left from a large box. Considered pressing some dark brown sugar and finely ground nuts on top but the batter was plenty sweet as it was. It made 12 medium muffins and one small loaf because I only own two muffin tins with six muffin cups each. 🙂
