In a large bowl, combine all-purpose and whole wheat flours, cheese, baking powder, cinnamon and salt. Stir in apples and pecans.
In another bowl, whisk together egg, milk, sugar and butter. Pour over dry ingredients and stir just until moistened.

Bake for about 22- 25 minutes or until tops are firm to the touch.
Let cool in pan for 5 minutes. Transfer to rack to cool completely.
