Combine oats flour, baking soda and salt. Add alternately with water to creamed mixture stirring with spoon. Mix well after each addition.

Place 2 inches apart on greased baking sheet. Flatten to 1/8-inch thickness with floured bottom of glass. Smooth edges. Bake at 375 degrees F for 5 to 7 minutes or until light brown around edges are firm. Remove from oven. Cool on baking sheet about 5 minutes.
For topping, place 1 measuring teaspoonful of apple filling in center of each cookie. Spread carefully to cover. Combine 1 cup reserved crumbs and nuts in small bowl. Toss until mixed. Sprinkle over apple filling.
Return to oven. Bake 5 minutes or until topping is light brown. Cool 1 minute before removing to cooling rack.
