Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) and line a 9x9 inch (23x23 cm) baking dish with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, combine the rolled oats, whole wheat flour, ground cinnamon, and salt.
Stir in the unsweetened applesauce, melted coconut oil, and vanilla extract until the mixture is crumbly but holds together when pressed.
Peel, core, and dice the Granny Smith apples into small cubes. Place them in a separate bowl and toss with lemon juice, ground nutmeg, and a pinch of cinnamon.
Stir in the chopped walnuts and raisins with the apples.
Press half of the crumble mixture into the bottom of the prepared baking dish to form an even base layer.
Spread the apple mixture evenly over the base.
Sprinkle the remaining crumble mixture on top, pressing gently to adhere.
Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the apples are tender.
Allow the crumble to cool in the dish before cutting into squares.
Serve the squares warm or at room temperature, and enjoy!
