The Secret Use for Golden Apples in Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom

Golden Apples have a use beyond their healing properties. Crikey!

There's also a TON of apple trees right next to the shrine near Satori mountain that can provide you with quite a few gold apples

[brandonhohn]

Just do this:
Take as many golden apples as you can and place them on the ground. Use ultra hand to fuse them all together. This will actually make an auto build using them, but don't build it. Go to the shrine next to Satori Mountain; there's always an absurd amount of apples. Take out the auto build, hold it up to the trees, and the golden apples will be grabbed for the build. When you're done, just cancel the build, rinse and repeat. I also do this with normal apples and I've got like 500 without really trying

The spoiler chart you put up in the beginning is genius, way better than just saying "this video contains major/minor spoilers" you actually explained what type.

I've seen a clip of someone sticking a bunch of golden apples together with ultrahand, then running through a bunch of Apple trees using autobuild and they'll pick themselves

There's an apple tree grove near the base of Satori Mountain that has a shrine right next to it where the sheer amount of apples that it spawns (~150+) basically guarantees you find some golden apples among them and typically more than the trees in Korok Forest. Personally I prefer this spot because it's a lot easier to access.

As others have said, the grove by Sonapan Shrine on Satori Mountain is the answer for golden (and regular) apples. I get well over 100 regular apples and usually around seven golden apples per visit. Use Ultrahand to stick a few apples from the ground together, then use the last entry in autobuild's history to pick the rest in the grove much quicker/easier (you could save that build to favorites, but sticking a few apples together takes seconds, and I'd rather not take up a favorite slot). I do the same for golden apples by sticking two at a time together to make finding/grabbing those a bit quicker as well.

Do bring an axe, as the grove has loads of trees, several of which inevitably decide to protest the theft of their fruit. Thankfully they're not exactly challenging to take on, and serve to keep me topped up on firewood as an additional perk of the area. There's also a nearby ledge that has loads of mushrooms in many varieties (zapshroom, ironshroom, chillshroom, and more come to mind), the area up top by the cherry tree has some nice flowers and carrots, and there are usually a couple of bull to shoot (for meat) near the initial apple grove as well. Satori mountain serves as sort of a one stop shop for a nice variety of things. It's kind of a cool tribute to its history.

The orchard next to Sonapan Shrine (Satori Mountain, slightly west of Central Hyrule) is also a good place to harvest golden apples. You just have to deal with Evemeans, but they are helpful - if you avoid their attacks (which causes very little damage anyways) and allow them to thomp the ground, it causes the apples to fall off the other real trees so you don't have to chop them down or use ultra hand or climb the trees. Just run around collecting apples. 🙂

*Reads title* Oh, there's another use other than guarantying a crit success for meals? *watches video* Ah, no there isn't. I don't know why I wasn't expecting this feature to be the "secret" of the video.

[Airmaltese]

Aleeex! You forgot Satori Mountain! The apples produced there are higher in quantity than botw and I always tend to find 5 or 6 golden apples there too. Sometimes more!

1:23 I had never seen link wipe his mouth like that 😂 he so hungry

[drdewott]

Iirc theres also a sky island in the Valor island region at the very of the map, northeast of Mt Lanayru that also features trees with extremely high rates of golden apples: Its the easternmost island there and it can be a little tricky to get to but you should be fine if you can assemble a flying Zonai device of some kind.

[SalvableRuin]

There is an apple orchard on Satori mountain, and one in Hyrule Field. You'll easily get some golden apples there, as well as in Hateno. Pro Tip: if you are sitting in your mech, you can collect apples in trees without climbing or jumping.

[nowonmetube]

I just teleport to that shrine the middle of the map the Sonapan Shrine, where all the apples trees are. There's also plenty golden apples.

[Awesomenerdol]

One of the things that i most enjoy about these videos is the spoiler alert message. You really know how cool is experience new things in Tears of the Kingdom by yourself

[mattblasi]

There is an apple orchard next to the Sonapan Shrine which has roughly 100-130 regular apples and a handful of golden apples. You don't even need to hit or chop down the tree if you already have the quest for Mineru completed. There are two trees there that come to life though. ... and now that I've read other comments clearly I'm really late to say the same thing :D

[Emma-bqbr]

I’ve found that there are always several golden apples in the trees in Hateno Village! They always respawn on the same branch of the same trees there.

[chromeshellking]

Satori mountain also has an apple orchard and as others suggested stick 20 apples and 10 golden together as an auto build to get it in the history and simply fave both and you have a magic harvesting effect.

0:54 Golden Apple implyfy the effects of meals you cook in Tears of the Kingdom

[Blurple]

For me, there is a tree in Hateno village next to the village pond that always spawn 1 golden apple

[VoidHalo]

Easy way to get golden apples: go to the apple orchard on Satori Mountain. Use autobuild to stick a few golden apples together. Then use that autobuild recipe while walking around to just suck up the golden apples. You can also fuse 21 regular apples, which is the mos you're allowed, and use that autobuild to walk around and collect the apples off the trees if you want a lot of low level healing items.
