Cinnamon Ornaments Recipe

As promised, here is the recipe to make the cinnamon ornaments:

INGREDIENTS:
3/4 cup applesauce
1 bottle (4.12 oz) ground Cinnamon (I used McCormick)
Supplies needed: cookie cutters, drinking straw & ribbon to hang ornaments

DIRECTIONS:
1. Preheat oven to 200 degrees F.

2. Mix applesauce & cinnamon in a small bowl using hands until a smooth ball of dough is formed (this part is messy). Using 1/4 of the dough at a time, roll to approx. 1/3" to 1/4" thickness between 2 sheets of plastic wrap (I used wax paper instead). Peel off top sheet and cut dough using cookie cutters. Make a hole in the top using a straw. Place ornaments on baking sheet.

3. Bake for 2-1/2 hours. Cool ornaments on a wire rack.

4. Insert ribbon through holes and tie to hang.

Your house will smell wonderful while these are baking!

Have fun! This is a fun project to do with the kids!!!
