- Repeat the Layers: Continue layering by repeating the process two more times, ensuring even distribution of the ingredients.
- Top the Dish: Finish by topping the dish with the remaining sliced apples, sprinkling the remaining chopped walnuts on top, and drizzling with the rest of the honey mixture.
- Bake: Place the dish in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) and bake for approximately 45 minutes, or until the apples are tender and lightly browned.
