This cinnamon Chewbacca ornament craft is epic! With my step-by-step tutorial this is an easy to make ornament with the kiddos! It perfectly compliments our Star Wars Chewbacca inspired Christmas tree.
I mean, check out these Cinnamon Chewbacca Ornaments! Admittedly we love, love, love Star Wars around here but when it starts to take over our Christmas tree should we worry that there is a problem?! One cannot have too much Star Wars right?! Especially when this Cinnamon Chewbacca Ornament is sooooo cute!
I wasn’t joking when I said Star Wars is taking over our Christmas Tree! Well, at least these wookies are… if you have a Star Wars fan in the family then these are sure to be a hit. And honestly, they are beyond easy to make and create! We’ve even gone so far as to create Baby Yoda Cinnamon Ornaments too!
These are simply our take on traditional apple cinnamon gingerbread men… with a few added extras! If you’re looking for an edible version of these be sure to check out our Wookie Cookie recipe.
We started with a request from Isaiah to create our annual Apple Cinnamon Ornaments. We often make these and give them out as random acts of kindness throughout the holiday season. I was in the midst of baking so when he saw the gingerbread man cookie cutter he thought is would be fun to create a few bigger ornaments. My mind immediately went to Chewbacca and this cinnamon Chewbacca ornament was born…

My friends on Facebook voted and this eyes/nose combo was the winning design. If you have a mini gingerbread cookie cutter is would be darling to create little Ewoks to go along with all of the Wookies!
Pretty fun right?! These cinnamon Chewbacca ornaments were such a hit with my boys!! They can’t wait to give them out to friends, family and strangers alike during the holidays because they are just too cute.
So, will you create a few of these Chewbacca Cinnamon Ornaments or would they take over your tree too??
These are adorable and fun! What is the longevity of an ornament made out of applesauce & cinnamon? Did you store them with the rest of the decorations for next year?
Years! Up to five? I store them wrapped in a bit of paper towel.
Hi! In trying to make these adorable ornaments, but my dough is not acting like dough. It’s very crumbly and falling apart ! What do I need to do to help the dough!!! I really want to make these adorable Chewies for my 3rd graders class.
Thanks, Sabrina
Hi Sabrina! Simply add more apple sauce until a workable dough forms. If it gets too sticky, add more cinnamon. I hope that helps, have fun with your third graders, I was in a grade one glass today. So fun!
