Guest guest Posted October 19, 2004 Report Share Posted October 19, 2004 Craft Recipes Cinnamon Applesauce Ornaments These beautiful, natural looking ornaments are the perfect addition to any Yule tree. We made about 150 of them this past Yule and used them to fill in our tree, since we don't have a large collection of ornaments. We used red, white, and blue ribbons to give the tree a patriotic theme. They were just the thing to pull the whole tree together. This recipe is a little inexact, as I tend to work by feel. It should get you started, though. Adjust the amount of cinnamon or applesauce as needed. 1lb. cinnamon powder 1lb. applesauce, not chunky Splash sweet orange essential oil Thin, colorful ribbon Mix all ingredients together. Add more applesauce or cinnamon as needed to make a stiff dough. Roll dough out to no thinner than 1/4 inch. Use holiday themed cookie cutters to cut out shapes. Using a drinking straw, poke a hole for a ribbon in each ornament. Move ornaments to wax paper covered cookie sheets to dry. Cover loosely with a light tea towel. After a few days, you can put them in a low oven - 200º or lower - for a few hours to help them dry out. They are ready to hang when they get hard. http://www.thymewise.net/crafts/cinnapp.php Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
