Quick answer

An example 150 g edible portion of apples (raw domestic apple, peeled) supplies about 61 kcal, 0.3 g protein and 2.7 g fiber. This is a scaled food-composition estimate, not a recommended serving size.

Apples: nutrition per 100 g and example portion

Reference preparation: raw domestic apple, peeled. The exact source name is “Apple, domestic, without skin” (Fineli food 11060). Available carbohydrate excludes fiber and is not the same measure as US Total Carbohydrate.

Values are rounded after scaling. A small reported amount may round below 0.1 g; a missing value is marked Not available rather than treated as zero. This selected extract does not include sugar, sodium or micronutrient amounts; the full Fineli database contains information beyond these tables.

How to weigh apples

This reference is peeled apple flesh, so remove the core and peel before using its values. If you eat the skin, choose a matching skin-on entry or package reference. Different varieties and reference samples also explain variation between databases.

Calculate your own apples portion

For the 150 g example, multiply the source amounts by 150 ÷ 100 = 1.5. The unrounded energy calculation is 40.5 × 1.5 = 60.75 kcal, displayed as approximately 61 kcal. Use the same factor for protein, available carbohydrate, fat and fiber.

For another amount, replace 150 with your own edible weight. Keep the preparation as raw domestic apple, peeled; if your food is prepared differently, choose a matching reference or calculate its recipe instead.

How preparation changes the estimate

An apple cooked without additions is different from apple pie or sweetened applesauce. When baking apples, include sugar, butter, pastry and toppings. Do not use a peeled-apple fiber figure as a universal value for every whole apple.

Meal ideas using apples

Use these combinations as menu ideas and adjust the amounts to your appetite and preferences. Each added ingredient belongs in the complete meal estimate.

  • Pair apple slices with cottage cheese for a snack.
  • Dice apple into a cabbage salad with walnuts and a separately measured dressing.

Frequently asked questions

How many calories are in 150 g of apples?

This raw domestic apple, peeled reference supplies about 61 kcal per 150 g edible portion. Match the preparation state and check a package label when available.

Multiply each per-100 g nutrient amount by your edible serving weight divided by 100. Match raw, dry, cooked or drained weight to the reference and include sauces or cooking additions separately.
