Cooking apple
Cooking apple is a free-to-play item, with a high alchemy value of 21 coins. The simplest way for an Ironman to get Cooking apple is to buy it: Culinaromancer's Chest in Lumbridge sells it for 36 coins, and 3 other shops stock it too.

Ironman verdict
Only one monster drops it: Giant spider (level 2), at 3/128 (about one every 21 kills). Other sources include Apple tree, Dell Monti and Barrel (apples). 3 recipes use Cooking apple, including Apple mush, Raw summer pie and Uncooked apple pie. Cooking apple is available on free-to-play worlds too. It is tradeable on normal accounts, but an Ironman cannot use the Grand Exchange or trade for it, so the sources on this page are the whole list. High Alchemy turns one into 21 coins, which is 15 less than the shop price, so buying it to alch does not pay.
