Easy Baked Cinnamon Ornaments. Only 2 ingredients and super easy to make!
- Total Time2 hours 15 minutes
- Yield15 ornaments 1x
Ingredients
Units
Scale
- 3/4 cup applesauce
- 1 - 1 1/4 cup ground cinnamon (about 2 bottles)
- Cookie cutters
- Drinking straw
- Colorful ribbon or baker's twine
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 200°F.
- Start by mixing up 1 cup of cinnamon and the applesauce in a small bowl. The mixture will be soft but add more cinnamon, a little at a time, until it’s not too sticky and you can form a ball with it.
- Dust a smooth surface with more cinnamon and also dust the top of the ball to get ready to roll out your dough.
- Roll it out evenly to about 1/4″ thick. I used my cookie guide sticks from my EZ Dough set to roll it out evenly.
- Then cut out your shapes and lay them on a parchment lined cookie sheet. I did all stars but you could do any shape… snowmen, snowflakes, Christmas trees, candy canes… the sky is the limit! (I had to ball my dough back up and roll it out again a couple of times to use up all the dough)
- Use a drinking straw to poke a hole in each ornament before baking!
- Once you have them all ready, pop them in the oven and let them bake away slowly for 2 hours! I think I ended up with around 15 ornaments total (two different size stars).
- Let them cool and the only thing left to do is add a ribbon or twine and hang them on your tree!
Notes
Having trouble? Take advice from reader Cheyenne: I had absolutely no problem at all and I didn’t even measure. I dumped in 2 bottles of cinnamon and then added apple sauce until I was comfortable with the dough. Not sure what the issue that everyone seemed to be having was? It’s to dry? Add more applesauce. It’s too wet? Add more cinnamon. Lol, thanks for the recipe!
