I have some recipes that i got off the SW website, but i haven't tried them yet. Not sure if they are new but i hope they are helpful for you :

Curly Wurly scan bran cake​

Serves: 1

Syns per serving: It's just 12 Syns for the whole cake and can be divided into as many slices as you like.

Ingredients
4 Scan Bran
2 eggs
3 or 4 tbsp sweetener (to taste)
1 sachet Belgian Choc Options
26g Curly Wurly bar

Method
1. Soak the Scan Bran in boiling water to soften. Then drain and mash.
2. Beat the eggs and stir into mix, along with the sweetener and Belgian Choc Options
3. Chop the Curly Wurly into pieces and add to the mix
4. Pour the mixture into a microwavable bowl and cook for around 6 minutes. When cooked the cake will be springy to the touch and will have pulled away from the side.

Tip: Chef's tip: For those who don’t have a microwave, you can cook the cake on 200°C/Gas Mark 6 for approximately 30 minutes.

The slimming world website has a new page, called 'stay on plan with scanbran' it's full of ideas. They have a recipe for raspberry and chocolate cake, banana cake and pineapple cake, to name but a few.

If you're on facebook, I discovered a scan bran appreciation society on there with TONS of recipes! I saw one for marmite and cheese scan bran loaf which sounded yummy!
