Is there any official recommendations by 'Apple' ?

Third party AV is not recommended— it typically does nothing but add issues to the macOS and competes directly with Apples own built in security:
macOS - Security - Apple https://www.apple.com/macos/security/
Apple Platform Security - Apple https://support.apple.com/guide/security/welcome/web

The best anti-virus app on your Mac is the OS and a bit of common sense from you.
You don't need AV stuff. And no, there are no recommendations from Apple.
+1 to all the answers you have received. just to add, you should read Effective defenses against malware and other threats - Apple Community. it's a long read, but it's worth reading every word.
Due diligence on the part of the user and No Antivirus, Disk Cleaner, Optimizers etc are required - they reck havoc and can cause corruption of OS
