Notes:
This would be good as muffins! They also seem to have a fairly long shelf life. I baked these before I left on a work trip. Took a loaf with me, and that survived the TSA check and 2.5 hour airplane journey + week stay at hotel. I made too much breakfast for the hubs, so we finished the remaining loaf when I returned. I would say shelf life would be about a week, no refrigeration. Could be longer with refrigeration.
