My mom and younger sisters were making these homemade ornaments earlier this month, and I wanted to share how to make them! And you guys. THE RECIPE ONLY HAS 2 INGREDIENTS! And you can make them what ever shape you would like. They also will make your house small amazing! Here we go»
Ingredients:
- 2 bottles (2.37 oz. each) Cinnamon
- 3/4 cup applesauce
Supplies:
- Cookie cutters
- Drinking straw
- Colorful ribbon
Instructions:
- Preheat oven to 200°F. Mix applesauce and cinnamon in small bowl until a smooth ball of dough is formed. (You may need use your hands to incorporate all of the cinnamon.) Using about 1/4 of the dough at a time, roll dough to 1/4-inch to 1/3-inch thickness between two sheets of plastic wrap. Peel off top sheet of plastic wrap. Cut dough into desired shapes with 2 to 3-inch cookie cutters. Make a hole at top of ornament with drinking straw or skewer. Place ornaments on baking sheet.
- Bake 2 1/2 hours. Cool ornaments on wire rack. (Or, to dry ornaments at room temperature, carefully place them on wire rack. Let stand 1 to 2 days or until thoroughly dry, turning occasionally.)
- Insert ribbon (we used twine) through holes and tie to hang.
