Instructions
Use 1/2 tablspoon of vegan butter to greese an 8x8 inch (20x20 cm) baking vessel. Set aside. Arrange an oven rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 350 Fahrenheit (180 Celcius).
In a medium mixing bowl, mix the flour, sugar, salt (if using) and cinnamon. Cut the remaining butter (7 1/2 tablespoons) into small almond size chunks, about 1/2 inch (1.3 centimeters) pieces. Transfer the butter to the flour mixture. Using your hands, work the butter into the flour mixture by pinching and tossing the ingredients. Continue working the butter into the mixture until a chunky mealy/sandy texture is formed. Squeeze the ingredients in your fist. If the dough holds its shape, it's ready. For a more chunky mixture, you can form clumps just by squeezing small pieces of the ingredients together. Gently fold in the walnuts. Transfer the crumble topping to the refrigerator while you prepare the apples.

*Peel or Not: You can leave the apple skin on if desired.
Apple Suggestions: Cortland, Honeycrisp, Gravenstein, Cameo, Jonagolds, Pink Lady, Granny Smith – if you like really tart apples.
Get Ahead: Make the crumble topping and store in the refrigerator at least three days ahead. It can be frozen up to several weeks if needed.
Kitchen Tools: I recommend a digital oven thermometer and weighing ingredients using a digital kitchen scale for the best outcome (affiliate links). If not using a kitchen scale, use the scoop-and-sweep method for measuring your flour.

In the printed instructions, it does not state to add the chopped walnuts to the crumble mixture. It does say it in the detailed instructions with pics. Since I like to print the recipe out, I neglected to add the walnuts! I'm sure it will be good. I might toast the walnuts and add when finished.
