ornaments Cinnamon applesauce

Cinnamon and applesauce. That is all you need to make these easy Christmas ornaments that smell oh-so-good. Hang them on the tree, around the house, or attach to present. You can use these anywhere you want a scented, festive pop.

What you need

11⁄4 cup ground cinnamon 1 cup smooth applesauce Ribbon or twine Whole cloves (optional)

Directions

Preheat oven to 200 degrees. In a medium bowl, combine the cinnamon and applesauce with a spoon or spatula until a dough forms. Knead a few times with your hands. Dough should be moist and smooth, not sticky. Shape into a ball, and chill in the refrigerator for one hour. Sprinkle a little cinnamon on your working surface. With a rolling pin, roll dough out to about 1⁄4 inch thickness. Cut desired shapes with cookie cutters. Use a straw or dowel to make a small hole in each shape to hang it. Decorate with cloves, if desired. Bake ornaments on a parchment lined baking sheet for two hours, or until completely firm. Let ornaments cool completely, then thread ribbon or twine through the hole to hang them.

Cinnamon applesauce ornaments are easy to make and smell amazing. AMANDA COLLINS BERNIER
