These are so moist and delcious!!! So citrusy!!! I absolutely love em. The anise and lemon compliment each other so well. The added fact that they're practically FF and LC is such an added bonus. I used reduced fat sour cream in place of the vanilla yogurt. (swore I had some on hand). Then added almost a t of vanilla as well. Also, one whole egg in place of the egg substitute. What a find I've come across!!!<br/>Made for Nuffin But Muffin in KK's forum.~

This is a forgiving recipe. I somehow over looked the orange juice ask for (or it didn't register). As I didn't have any I omitted the lemon extract and used 1/2 c lemon juice and 1/2 cup of water in place of the orange. Also, as Mikekey suggested I cracked two TBS of anise seeds and used them in place of the Poppy seed. Exquisite taste. I love them!
