Start by chopping your apples and nuts into your desired size. Toss them in a bowl with the lemon juice to slow down the oxidation and browning of the apples. On a large plate, dollop your labne and spread into a circle with the outer rim slightly higher than the center. Pour the apples and nut into the center of the labne. Next, pour and swirl the hot honey and olive oil in a circular motion all over the top, allowing them to get into the nooks and crannies. Finish with a sprinkling of the kosher salt, cayenne pepper, and ground sumac. Serve with challah or simply divvy up eat with a spoon.
