For the Topping:
In a small bowl, combine brown sugar, flour, and apple pie spice. Using a fork, cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in walnuts or pecans.

Sprinkle Streusel-Nut Topping over batter. Bake for 60 to 65 minutes or until a wooden toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean.
