Start by finely dicing the medium apple. You can peel the apple if you prefer, but keeping the peel adds extra fiber.
In a small bowl, combine the diced apple with the lemon juice to prevent browning. Stir well to coat the apple pieces evenly.
In another bowl, mix the unsweetened applesauce with ground cinnamon until thoroughly combined.
Place your plain rice cakes on a serving tray or dish.
Evenly spread about a quarter cup of the cinnamon applesauce mixture on each rice cake.
Top the applesauce layer on each rice cake with a quarter of the diced apple mixture.
Drizzle a small amount of honey over the top of the apples and applesauce layer on each rice cake for added sweetness.
For an additional touch of flavor, you can sprinkle a small pinch of extra cinnamon on top.
Serve immediately to maintain the crunchiness of the rice cakes, or cover and refrigerate if not serving right away.
