Wholesome Holiday Treats
From crunchy biscotti to spiced fruits, here are some delicious, whole-food recipes for holiday treats. Make these for you and your family and also consider making some of these as gifts from your kitchen.

Cranberry Clafoutis
Here's a seasonal twist on a delicious French recipe that would work wonderfully for a holiday brunch. You could lower the fat and cholesterol if you choose by using low-fat milk and replacing one or two of the whole eggs with egg whites or the equivalent amount of liquid egg substitute.
