1/2 cup of all-purpose flour
1/4 cup of rolled oats
1/4 cup of chopped walnuts
1/4 cup of chopped pecans

Assembling the Pie
To begin, preheat your oven to 375F and melt the butter in a 10-inch cast iron skillet. Once the butter is melted, add the apples, brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt to the skillet. Stir everything together until the apples are evenly coated. In a separate bowl, combine the flour, oats, walnuts, pecans and melted butter. Mix until everything is combined. Pour the mixture over the apples in the skillet, and spread it out evenly.

Once the pie is assembled, bake it in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the apples are tender. Once the pie is done, remove it from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before serving.
