Dos anyone have any good recipes for this pan besides the upside down cakes and the pull-aparts/monkey bread type recipes? I would like to make something in it for a brunch.

This is all I could find. Maybe cut the recipe in half and bake it? I am not sure how you would modify it, but at least it gives you an idea- BTW I usually make it in my rectagular baker and it is SO good!!
