crumble topping
- ¼ cup walnuts
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon earth balance butter (or regular butter) or hardened coconut oil

for the apples
- ½ teaspoon butter (vegan earth balance) or coconut oil

Instructions
- 1
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Make your crumble topping by crushing the crumble ingredients together. I placed everything into a plastic bag and used a wooden kitchen mallet to crush. Then I used my hands (from the outside of the bag) to distribute any excess clumps of butter. Don't over mix, stop when it's a coarse crumble. Set aside.

Heat oil in a small skillet, add apples, a squeeze of lemon and a drizzle of maple syrup. Stir to coat and continue cooking for a few minutes until the apples just begin to soften.

Top the apples with the crumble mixture (as much as you want) and place the skillet in the oven for 8-12 minutes, until the apples are tender and the crumble topping is lightly toasted.

Remove from the oven and serve with 2 spoons and a scoop of ice cream.
