Prep Time30 minutes
Baking Time2 hours 30 minutes

Ingredients

  • 1 cup Cinnamon
  • 1 cup Applesauce
  • Decorations optional

Instructions

  • Mix the cinnamon and applesauce together in a large bowl, using your hands if needed to bring them together in a stiff dough.
  • Next, roll out a third of the dough between two piece of plastic wrap to a 1/4 inch thickness. Remove the top layer of plastic wrap and cut out shapes using cookie cutters.
  • Move ornaments to a lined cookie sheet. Using a straw, poke a hole at the top of each ornament.
  • Bake the ornaments at 200 degrees for about two and a half hours, until they feel dry and hard.
  • Once the ornaments are cool, decorate the ornaments if desired. Thread twine or ribbon through the hole at the top and tie a knot.

Notes

You can make any size batch you'd like; just be sure to use the same amount of cinnamon as applesauce.
