Is this strictly a simple present tense, or would a present continuous translation ("The boy is eating an apple") work as well?

That works as well, Dutch is a lot more lenient when it comes to tenses. Either continuous (De jongen is een appel aan het eten) or simple present tense (De jongen eet een appel) can be used in Dutch where only present continuous is correct in English (The boy is eating an apple).
