Cinnamon Applesauce Ornaments Recipe

1 cup ground cinnamon

1 cup applesauce (room temperature)

1 teaspoon Allspice

1 1/2 tablespoons white all-purpose craft glue

Note: If you are not going to use your dough immediately, you can store it in a plastic sealed package or zipper closure bag.

Your first step is to lay newspaper or an old plastic table cloth down onto your work face as this can be messy.

In a medium-sized bowl, sift together the ground cinnamon and Allspice. Stir in the applesauce and all-purpose craft glue. Using your hands, mix it all together and form into a large ball.

Lay a sheet of waxed or parchment paper down on your counter top. Divide your dough into 3 portions, leaving 2 portions in your bowl. Roll out the first portion with a rolling pin until it measures 1/4" thick.

Using cookie cutters, cut out your desired shapes. Use the end of a drinking straw to make a hole at the top of each adornment so that you can thread some string through it for hanging. Place shapes on a baking sheet.

Bake in a preheated 200 degree oven for almost 30 minutes or until they have hardened. Take off from oven and let them cool on a wire rack. Once they are done cooling, place string, ribbon or embellishment thread through the hole so that your ornaments can be hung onto the tree.

If desired, you can decorate your ornaments with scraps of craft supplies using all-purpose craft glue.
