This is a little different but quick with a light texture that freezes very well. I think I found it in a NZ Womens Weekly magazine.

Excellent recipe but I find the use of both imperial and metric measures problematic. I used 1/4 c. cooking oil for the butter, reduced the sugar slightly to a generous 3/4 c., used half wholewheat flour, and 1 tsp. backing soda and 1 tsp. b.p. to simulate the self-raising flour. Farenheit temperature is about 400 degrees.

    These were good - nice and light as the recipe name suggests. I wasn't crazy about the honey/butter/nut topping but my partner liked it. But I don't like honey in general. I would recommend this recipe for sure!

    When I first saw the name of these muffins, I thought it meant light as in low-calorie. Now I know light means "light and fluffy". These certainly live up to their name and are worth every calorie! They have a wonderful feather-light texture and are so good with the nut topping (which I cooked on the stove instead of in a microwave).
