Muffin, fruit, low fat calories: 332 per 1 medium (130 g)
This exact USDA record reports 332 calories for 1 medium (130 g). That answer belongs to this description and weight; it is not a universal value for every meal that shares the name.

The editorial read
The useful answer has a weight, a composition, and an identity
Portion: the cited record reports about 332 calories for 1 medium at 130 grams. On a fixed-weight basis, the same record contains 255 calories per 100 grams. The first number answers a portion question; the second answers a concentration question.
Composition: that source amount also reports 5.5 g protein, 5.5 g fiber, and 537 mg sodium. Read those values together: a calorie total by itself cannot describe the nutrient profile.
Identity: the largest listed formulation input is muffin, blueberry, commercially prepared, low-fat, representing 100% of the record’s listed input weight. These are provenance for a standardized calculation, not a recipe for your plate.
The source calls its underlying survey portion “Quantity not specified,” but it separately lists 1 medium at the identical weight. We use the familiar household label here without changing the source calculation.
The household measures attached to this record span roughly 26–459 calories across the listed portions. That is a set of scaled examples—not a confidence interval, a recommendation, or a claim about the full universe of recipes.
Calculated from the smallest and largest usable household measures listed by USDA for this exact FNDDS record; not a confidence interval.
Record-specific decision brief
What the numbers say—and what choice still belongs to you
This analysis belongs to USDA FDC 2707831: “Muffin, fruit, low fat.” It separates gram-weight arithmetic, corpus context, label signals, and record selection so one number does not have to answer four different questions.
01 · Portion arithmetic
Three weights, one fixed composition
For FDC 2707831, each row multiplies the published per-100-gram values by its stated weight. “1 bite size” through “1 large” are weight scenarios: named measures come from USDA, while percentage labels are transparent arithmetic.
| Scenario | Weight | Energy | Protein | Fiber | Sodium |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 bite sizeUSDA-listed household measure | 10 g | 26 kcal | 0.4 g | 0.4 g | 41 mg |
| 1 mediumUSDA-listed household measure | 130 g | 332 kcal | 5.5 g | 5.5 g | 537 mg |

03 · FDA label lens
The strongest strength-side and tradeoff-side signals
At FDC 2707831’s 130 g reference weight, the largest strength-side percentage among the nutrients evaluated here is Dietary fiber; the larger tradeoff-side percentage is Sodium. Percentages use FDA label Daily Values, whose general “high” guide begins at 20% Daily Value. This is not an overall score or a personalized target.

04 · Highest-impact checks
The three levers most worth resolving first
For “Muffin, fruit, low fat,” the first-pass checks follow the evidence actually published: its named weights, the FDC 2707830 alternative, and its source-formulation identity.
- 01
Listed portion span: 1 bite size to 1 large
USDA assigns those measures 10 g and 180 g. At this record’s fixed composition, scaled energy moves from 26 kcal to 459 kcal.
- 02
Record choice: compare with FDC 2707830
At an equal 100 g, this record has 3.1 g more dietary fiber than “Muffin, fruit.” That is a record-level contrast; it does not identify which ingredient caused the difference.
- 03
Single listed source: Muffin, blueberry, commercially prepared, low-fat
USDA derives this record from one listed source-input row at 100 g. Real preparations can still differ in water, cooking state, brand, and served weight.
05 · Exact-record choice
Select by literal evidence, not the shortest name
Keep this record when “fruit; low fat” fits. Inspect FDC 2707830 when “fruit” is the more literal description of the food and preparation.

Inside the source record
Source formulation behind this USDA record
USDA links FDC 2707831 to one source input totaling 100 g in its standardized formulation. Publishing that exact provenance makes “Muffin, fruit, low fat” inspectable beside similarly named records.
How to read this
A single-source formulation
Muffin, blueberry, commercially prepared, low-fat is the only listed source input for this record. That does not mean every real-world version is identical; brands, preparation, water content, and portion weight can still differ.

Exact-record context
What makes this USDA record distinct?
For FDC 2707831, the close-record rule searches the USDA “Biscuits, muffins, quick breads” category for shared description terms or source inputs. Any surviving pair is compared per 100 grams, so unlike source-serving sizes cannot manufacture the nutrient difference.

Plain-English read
At the fixed 100-gram basis, this record lists 120 less calories, 11.9 g less total fat, and 3.1 g more dietary fiber than “Muffin, fruit.”
Only this record lists Muffin, blueberry, commercially prepared, low-fat. Only the comparison record lists Muffins, blueberry, commercially prepared (Includes mini-muffins). Those formulation rows identify different source records; they do not prove which input caused a nutrient difference.
4 of the six displayed differences clear the documented materiality screen. It is a reading aid, not a health rating.

Uncertainty, made actionable
What can change this estimate?
This is a standardized USDA survey-food profile, not a measurement of every preparation. Actual nutrition can change with item size, recipe or brand, moisture and density, spreads or toppings.
For “Muffin, fruit, low fat,” resolve item size first, then move through the remaining 3 published levers. Unknowns should remain visible rather than expanding every assumption at once.
- 01
item size
When composition is held constant, nutrient totals scale directly with grams. A 20% weight correction produces the same 20% correction to the scaled totals.
- 02
recipe or brand
Prefer a package, menu, or known recipe when it identifies the food more precisely. Otherwise preserve the generic record as an explicit approximation.
- 03
moisture and density
Match the food state before matching the number. Cooking, draining, or added liquid can change grams and concentration even when the food name barely changes.
- 04
spreads or toppings
Check whether the exact source description already includes it. If not, keep the addition separate rather than silently folding it into the base record.
How we estimated this
The arithmetic is simple; the provenance is the point
FDC 2707831 comes from FoodData Central Survey Foods (FNDDS). Its 255 kcal per 100 g becomes 332 kcal at 130 g through nutrient per portion = nutrient per 100 g × portion grams ÷ 100; this page adds no second nutrition estimate.
About the serving label: USDA describes the underlying survey portion as “Quantity not specified.” The separately listed 1 medium has the same gram weight, so the familiar label can be shown without changing the calculation.
Data cycle: 2021–2023, published October 31, 2024
FoodData Central ID: 2707831
FNDDS food code: 52302020
The scaling for FDC 2707831 can be exact while the match to “Muffin, fruit, low fat” is wrong. That is why this profile keeps its 130 g weight, 1-row source formulation, and selection uncertainty beside the arithmetic.
