These are excellectly spicey. Many of my friends and family have enjoyed them. I made them different lengths, and some I sprinkled with the pepper, others I left without for those who aren't hot spice eaters.

Tasty
I was impressed. They had the perfect amount of kick to them with the spices and the texture was perfect and not to dry. I was worried that the bran would give it an off flavor, but I couldn't taste it. I would definately recommend this recipe to someone who wants to eat healthier.
