  1. Pulse flour and butter in a food processor until mixture resembles coarse meal. Gradually add water, pulsing until dough forms and pulls from the sides. Add ½ cup cheese; pulse to combine.
  2. Transfer dough to work surface; knead gently just until blended. Shape into ball; flatten into disk. Wrap with plastic wrap. Refrigerate 1 hour
  3. Heat oven to 425°F. Unwrap dough; place between 2 lightly floured sheets of waxed paper. Roll into 11-inch circle. Transfer to parchment-covered baking sheet
  4. Mix ½ cup sugar and cinnamon; toss with apples and lemon juice. Let sit 10 min. Spoon filling into crust, leaving 3 edge. Fold and pleat edges over apples. Brush crust with milk and sprinkle with remaining sugar.
  5. Bake 30 to 35 min. or until crust is golden brown, and apple mixture is hot and bubbly, topping with remaining cheese after 25 min
