Wash the green apple thoroughly under cold running water and pat dry with a clean towel.
Slice the apple into thin wedges, removing the core and seeds. Aim for uniform thickness for even cooking.
Place the apple slices in a bowl and drizzle with lemon juice. Toss gently to coat evenly, as this prevents browning and adds a tangy flavor.
In a small microwave-safe bowl, combine unsweetened dark chocolate and coconut oil. Microwave in 20-second intervals, stirring between each, until the chocolate is melted and smooth. Alternatively, melt using a double boiler over low heat.
Stir granulated erythritol into the melted chocolate until fully dissolved, then mix in the cinnamon powder for a spicy kick.
Place the apple slices on a serving platter and drizzle the melted chocolate mixture over them using a spoon. Ensure each slice is generously coated.
Optionally, sprinkle chopped nuts over the chocolate-covered apple slices to add a crunchy texture.
Allow the chocolate drizzle to set at room temperature for about 5 minutes before serving.
Enjoy immediately or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to two days for a chilled version.
