I bake in small tins, but not that small. As a starting point, I'd keep
the temperature the same, else you might not get the cooking and browning
effects you're after.
I take a look in at 1/2 of the time you normally bake for. You may need a
bit more, but start there. As usual, the internal temperature should be
your guide. For normal bread, it's something between 190 and 200F / 87 to
93C.
