The Griffin Center for Healthy Living is helping families have healthier holidays with a free cooking demonstration.
The Healthy Gingerbread Man will be Thurs., Dec. 11 from 5-6:15 p.m. at the Griffin Center for Healthy Living Teaching Kitchen, Quarry Walk, 300 Oxford Road, Oxford.
Griffin Health Chef Mike Rizzio will lead a cooking demonstration on how to make and decorate a gingerbread man that includes nutritional ingredients like flaxseed mill, coconut oil and wheat flour, and uses healthier monk fruit and unsulphured molasses instead of sugar.
