1/4 cup light brown sugar, firmly packed
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons granulated sugar
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
2 tablespoons margarine
DOUGH
1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
1/3 cup granulated sugar
1 package Fleischmann's® Rapid Rise Yeast
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup bran
1/2 cup margarine
1/2 cup water

1. Prepare Nutty Crumb Topping; Combine 1/2 cup pecans, chopped, 1/4 cup firmly packed light brown sugar, 1/4 cup all-purpose flour, two tablespoon granulated sugar and 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon; cut in 2 tablespoons margarine until crumbly. Set aside.
2. In large bowl, mix 3/4 cup flour, sugar, undissolved yeast and salt; set aside.
3. In small saucepan, heat bran, margarine, water and milk until very warm (125ºF to 130ºF); margarine does not need to melt. With electric mixer at medium speed, beat bran mixture and yeast mixture for 2 minutes, scraping bowl occasionally. Add eggs and 1/2 cup flour; beat at high speed for 2 minutes, scraping bowl occasionally. With spoon, stir in remaining flour to make a stiff batter.
