Preheat oven to 200 degrees F.

Line a cookie sheet pan with unbleached parchment paper.

In large bowl combine the cinnamon and applesauce. Stir well. I used a paddle attachment in my stand mixer.

If the dough is too sticky add more cinnamon. If it is too dry add more applesauce.

Sprinkle a clean surface with cinnamon as if you were rolling out cut-out cookies with traditional flour.

Place dough on cinnamon then dust with additional cinnamon.

Sprinkle a rolling pin with cinnamon and roll the dough to 1/4 inch thick, sprinkling with more cinnamon to keep from sticking.

Cut out into shapes with cookie cutters.

Place onto cookie sheet with parchment. They can be very close since they do not rise or expand.

Use a straw or something round to poke a hole into each ornament for hanging.

Bake in oven for 1 1/2 - 2 hours or until rock hard OR allow to dry at room temperature for several days.

Tie a piece of yarn through each ornament.
