Why
With around 11.6 g of net carbs per 100 g (including 10 g of sugars), apple pushes your count up fast and sits badly with ketosis.
How much can you eat?
An occasional taste at most — and count it towards your day.
In practice
Its healthy halo is misleading: a medium apple carries 20-25 g of carbs, almost all sugar. Off the table on strict keto; for a fruit craving, a few strawberries or raspberries cost a fraction of the carbs.
