Step-by-Step Method
Preheat and prep the dish
Heat the oven to 350°F (175–180°C). Lightly grease a medium baking dish so the crisp lifts out easily.
Add the apples
Spread the sliced apples evenly in the baking dish. If you want, dust the apples with a little cinnamon.
Make the crumble
In a bowl, mix the brown sugar and flour. Add the cold butter and rub it in with your fingertips until you get coarse, crumbly bits.
Stir in walnuts
Fold in the chopped walnuts so the topping bakes up lightly crunchy.
Top the apples
Sprinkle the crumble mixture over the apples in an even layer. Don’t press it down; loose crumbs brown better.
Bake
Bake for 45 minutes, until the top is browned and the apples are tender. If it browns too fast, loosely cover for the last 10 minutes.
Cool briefly and serve
Let it sit for 10 minutes before scooping. Serve warm, with ice cream or yogurt if you’d like.
