Apple
An apple was a type of fruit found in various locations throughout the galaxy. Almakian apples were found[1] on the planet[2] Almak. It was used in All-Almakian apple pie, a favorite dish of the Leffingite[1] species.[2] Corellian apples were found on the planet Corellia.[3] Geldan sun-apples were found in the Gelda system,[4] and were used as a syrup to flavour fizzyglug beverages.[1] The Gor apple was a type that became wrinkled when dried, with Gab'borah Hise's face resembling one.[5] Groundapple was used in a drink with dew flower once consumed by Mara Jade Skywalker in the Sanvia Vitajuice Bar on the planet Coruscant.[6] The fruit shared its name with apple slugs.[1]
Behind the scenes
The earliest mention of an apple was the Geldan sun-apple in Riders of the Maelstrom, a 1996 roleplaying game book.[7]

The Essential Atlas and Galactic Cartography: Official Discussion on the Jedi Council Forums (Literature board; posted by jasonfry on December 11, 2007, 7:59am; accessed March 6, 2016): "I wouldn't get your hopes up re alien homeworlds, beyond simple stuff like the Planetnamian species getting a Planetnamia on the map or things Dan and I can account for with a relatively quick reference." (backup link) Jason Fry, co-author of The Essential Atlas, stated his intention to create homeworlds for numerous species based on context implied from their names. Given this principle, this article makes a similar basic assumption for the Geldan sun-apples in relation to the Gelda system.
