Weigh the edible part
The 150–220 g model is for apple flesh and skin after removing the core. A whole apple on the scale includes discarded material, so it may overstate the edible grams.
One apple is not a fixed serving
Apple sizes vary. The range here comes only from edible weight and does not quantify cultivar differences. Peeling, drying or cooking calls for a matching preparation record.
USDA records: compare the same edible weight
Each reference row is per 100 g. Food states and alternatives stay separate. Additional soda rows use the recorded can weight. Missing nutrients stay Unknown; a displayed zero can be a small value rounded to one decimal.

Portion scenarios and calculation
Assumptions: 150–220 g cored edible apple with skin. These weights are editorial models unless explicitly labeled USDA portions. Choose one alternative for each component; do not add alternative recipes together.
For every nutrient: USDA amount per 100 g × edible grams ÷ 100, summed across ingredients. The range is the minimum and maximum across the disclosed record alternatives and weight endpoints, calculated before rounding. Calories use whole kcal; g and mg use at most one decimal, with decimal ROUND_HALF_UP and no trailing zeros.

Combined scenario ranges: protein 0.4–0.6 g; fat 0.3–0.4 g; carbohydrate 20.7–30.4 g; fiber 3.6–5.3 g; total sugars 15.6–22.9 g; sodium 1.5–2.2 mg. Nutrient minima can come from different alternatives, so the low values do not necessarily describe one meal.
Plan the portion alongside other foods
Use a matching preparation and edible weight when logging each part of a meal. These guides explain separate foods or drink choices; their portion estimates are not interchangeable.
Common questions
Honeycrisp apple calories?
Generic raw apple with skin approximates Honeycrisp. This is not a Honeycrisp-specific USDA analysis. Variety, sweetness and growing conditions can change the actual composition.
How is this estimate calculated?
Use the listed USDA records and 150–220 g cored edible apple with skin. Multiply each per-100-g nutrient by edible grams divided by 100, then sum components. Alternatives are separate scenarios. The range describes the disclosed scenarios, not a confidence interval or official brand nutrition.
