No Bake Cinnamon Applesauce Christmas Ornaments Recipe

Step 1

Combine all ingredients in a large bowl. Use a spatula and make sure all the cinnamon is absorbed into the applesauce.

Step 2

Gather the dough with your hands. Knead it several times, pressing the dough firmly into a ball. It will be about the size of a softball.

Step 3

Sprinkle some cinnamon on a cutting board or other smooth surface. Flatten the ball into a disc with your hands. Using a rolling pin, begin to roll out the dough. Turn the dough several times while rolling, adding more cinnamon to prevent sticking.

Step 4

Roll until the dough is about 1/4 inch thick and cut out the shapes using cookie cutters.

Step 5

Gather the leftover dough after the first cutting and again knead it several times, pressing it firmly into a ball. Repeat the rolling process.

Step 6

Repeat until all the dough is used.

Step 7

Lay the ornaments on a cookie sheet covered with wax or parchment paper. Using a skewer or small straw, make a hole in the top of each ornament.

Step 8

Ornaments should dry in 24 to 48 hours. It helps to turn them occasionally so they dry evenly.

Step 9

String with a piece of twine or ribbon to hang.
