While the kids are home from school today,help them make cinnamon ornaments. Here are instructions from McCormick.
Cinnamon ornaments
3/4 cup applesauce
1 cup plus 2 tablespoons ground cinnamon
Supplies needed: Plastic wrap, cookie cutters, drinking straw, colorful ribbon.
Preheat oven to 200 degrees. Mix applesauce and cinnamon with hands in small bowl until smooth ball of dough is formed. 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 cookie cutters. Make a hole in top of ornament with drinking straw. Place ornaments on baking sheet.
Bake 21/2 hours. Cool ornaments on wire rack. (Or, to dry ornaments at room temperature, carefully place them on wire rack. Let stand for 1 to 2 days or until thoroughly dry, turning occasionally). Insert ribbon through holes and tie to hang.
If desired, may be decorated with glitter, sequins, paint and more. Makes 12 to 15 ornaments.
