I found a slightly-expired jar of applesauce while I was cleaning out my pantry last weekend.\u00a0 And then I found a recipe for Apple Cinnamon Dough<\/a> (scroll down on that page).<\/p>\n

If you don't count the glue, this could be delicious!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

The kids had fun helping me measure and mix – there was a cloud of cinnamon floating about our heads the entire time.\u00a0 The kitchen might never smell normal again!<\/p>\n

...and poke it with a pencil...<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

The instructions said to leave them someplace to dry for days.\u00a0 We’re not that patient, so I set the oven to 200F and put the ornaments on parchment paper-lined cookie sheets.\u00a0 After 10 minutes, I flipped them over and baked them for another 10 minutes.<\/p>\n

Oodles of ornaments!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

They aren’t quite completely dried out, but they’re pretty close!\u00a0 And they smell wonderful.\u00a0 We might paint or otherwise decorate these later this week, but with a pretty ribbon strung through the holes they’d also be lovely and sweet smelling just as they are.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
