    With sugary treats available in plentiful abundance everywhere you look, eating healthy (and getting your kids to eat healthy) can be tough. Which is why it's a great idea to have some healthy and fun holiday themed options, geared especially towards them. Little ones love faces, animals and caricatures made from food, so this is probably the best time to hop on that theme train with Santa, his reindeer, the elves, Frosty and a whole other slew of possibilites. I'm willing to bet you'll enjoy these healthy treats too. The holidays have this magical way of bringing out the child in all of us, I know it can't be just me. Bring on the strawberry Santas and whatnot! - By Selena Burgess

      You can substitute an equal amount of fresh blueberries for the blackberries; be sure to rinse and dry them thoroughly before scattering over the batter.

      Yellow cornmeal produces a dessert that has a rich, golden color, but you could use white cornmeal instead.
