I honestly cannot imagine why it's taken me so long to make this delicious recipe. I used natural bran and edited the spice to 1 tsp cinnamon, 1/2 tsp mace and 1/4 tsp cardamom and skipped the cranberries. This mixes up in almost no time and mine was perfectly baked at 40 mins. This is a real keeper. Made for Photo Tag.
