As is typically the case, you can either use standard or golden apples. The latter typically produce a slightly better result, but you’ll find success either way. Throw in some additional apples if you want to increase the number of hearts restored, which is what the recipe is good for. You can also try adding ingredients such as the Stamella Shroom or Sundelion to produce versions of the dish that provide neat secondary effects like stamina refills or gloom recovery.
If you’re having trouble finding the other main ingredient, check out our guide on how to get and farm Goat Butter. You’ll have to buy it from merchants, but there are a few of them that carry the ingredient throughout Hyrule and they don’t charge much. You can raise money to buy all the butter you need, just by selling surplus meals you’ve made by cooking apples.
The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom is available on the Nintendo Switch.
