Method

1. 01
   Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
2. 02
   In a large bowl, combine sifted flour, sugar, and salt for the crust. Add chilled butter cubes and mix until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
3. 03
   Gradually add ice water, mixing just until the dough comes together. Form into a ball, wrap in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for 15 minutes.

   Roll out the chilled dough on a floured surface and fit it into a 9-inch tart pan. Trim the edges and set aside.
5. 05
   In a bowl, toss the apple slices with sugar and cinnamon until evenly coated. Stir in chopped walnuts and spread the mixture over the prepared crust.
6. 06
   For the streusel, mix flour and brown sugar in a bowl. Add melted butter and chopped walnuts, stirring until crumbly.
7. 07
   Sprinkle the streusel topping evenly over the apple filling.
8. 08
   Bake the tart in the preheated oven for 40-50 minutes or until the crust is golden brown and the apples are tender.
9. 09
   Remove from the oven and allow to cool slightly before serving warm.
