Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease an 8x8 inch baking dish with a bit of coconut oil and set aside.
In a large bowl, whisk together the coconut flour, arrowroot powder, baking soda, ground cinnamon, and sea salt.
In a separate bowl, beat the eggs. Add the unsweetened applesauce, honey, vanilla extract, almond milk, and melted coconut oil, and mix until fully combined.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until a smooth batter forms.
Fold in the diced apple pieces evenly into the batter.
Transfer the batter into the prepared baking dish and spread it evenly.
Bake in the preheated oven for about 45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.
Allow the cake to cool in the baking dish for at least 10 minutes before slicing.
Serve warm or at room temperature and enjoy your Paleo Apple Cinnamon Rice Cake!
