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.

• Too wet, add more cinnamon--too dry, add more applesauce.
• Roll the dough out on a surface dusted with cinnamon, 1/4 inch thick.
• Cut out shapes with cookie cutters [x-mas tree, hearts, stars, etc].
• Make a hole in the top with a wooden or metal skewer, this must be large enough for ribbon if you want them for hanging.
• Air dry them for several days on paper kitchen towel, turning them over several times so they don't warp.
• Impatient?.
• A low oven [200°F] for a few hours will also do the trick, don't forget to turn them over.
• When dry, decorate with a ribbon.
• You can also use shallow plaster, cookie and candy molds, press the dough in the cavity, smooth with a rolling pin, ease out of the mold and cut away the excess dough.
• Or roll out the dough, place a piece of decorative lace on the top, using the rolling pin go over it until it has left an impression of the lace, then cut out using the cookie cutters.
• You also get a nice result using cookie stamps.

APPLESAUCE CINNAMON ORNAMENTS

Steps:

• In a large bowl, combine the applesauce and spices; mix well until a stiff dough forms, adding additional cinnamon if needed., On a board dusted with additional cinnamon, roll out each portion of dough to 1/4-inch thickness. Cut into shapes using 1-1/2-in. cookie cutters dipped in cinnamon. Reroll scraps. Place cutouts on parchment-lined baking sheets., Using a straw or wooden skewer, make a small hole in the top of each of the ornaments., Bake at 200° for 20 to 30 minutes. Remove to paper towels to dry thoroughly. When completely dry and cool, string a ribbon strip or piece of thread through each hole; tie the ends together to for a loop.

APPLE CINNAMON SACHETS

Steps:

• 1. Put the cinnamon into a bowl and add the applesauce in stages, mixing as you go until you have enough applesauce to moisten all the cinnamon and produce a dough.
• 2. This dough can be rolled and cut out with cookie cutters if you are careful not to make it too thin, about 1/4 inch thick is right.
• 3. You can also roll balls of it and if you like, flatten them into patties. Once dried, these cinnamon 'cookies' keep for years and smell great.

3-INGREDIENT CINNAMON ORNAMENTS (BAKE AND NO-BAKE OPTIONS)

Steps:

• Mix together the ¾ cup applesauce, ground cinnamon, and glue until well combined. Add more applesauce, a tablespoon at a time, as needed, to form a soft dough. Knead with your hands until the dough is smooth. Roll out the dough. I like to roll it between 2 pieces of parchment paper to approximately ⅜-inch thickness. (You can make thicker ornaments; they will simply take a little longer to dry out.) Cut into desired shapes with cookie cutters. Use a straw, skewer, piping tip or pencil to punch a hole near the top of the ornament for a ribbon. (Make sure to do this now. Once the ornaments have dried out, they will be too hard to make a hole.) Place the ornaments on a parchment-lined baking sheet. As I transfer them, I use my finger to soften any rough edges. Dry in a 200℉ oven for 1½ to 2 hours. I usually flip them halfway through, but this isn't critical. As an option, you may allow the ornaments to air dry for 3 to 4 days, flipping about once per day. Once dry, decorate as desired and then insert a ribbon through the hole for hanging.
