I'm going to try making this on Saturday, but I'm afraid the full recipe will be too much for just DH and me... even leftovers! Has anyone tried halving the recipe and baking it in the medium bar pan? I'd think it would work, but I'm not sure how much to cut the baking time down.
 
time to bakenormally when you cut a recipe in half you still would bake the same time, maybe a little less just keep an eye on how it is looking, and how you think it should look. That is what my experience as a chef is telling me. hope that helps
 
I actually had to bake it longer than the recipe said. I made the whole recipe, and had it for leftovers because my family prefers the omelet roll and they just kinda nibbled on it. It reheated ok,
