Kumquat is a small citrus fruit eaten whole — skin and all — unlike most of its citrus relatives, where the peel is typically discarded. Native to China and widely used across East and Southeast Asian cuisines, kumquats are eaten raw as a snack, candied, made into marmalades, or sliced into salads and drinks. Per 100 g, raw kumquats provide 66 kcal, 1.9 g of protein, 0.9 g of fat, 13.9 g of carbohydrates and a notable 6.5 g of dietary fibre, with 9.4 g of sugars. They supply 43.9 mg of vitamin C, 186 mg of potassium and 62 mg of calcium per 100 g. Kumquats are suitable for vegan, vegetarian, gluten-free, dairy-free, keto, paleo, mediterranean and low-FODMAP dietary patterns.
How many calories in kumquats?
Raw kumquats contain 66 kcal per 100 g. A single kumquat weighs roughly 20 g, so one fruit comes in at around 13 kcal.
How much vitamin C is in kumquats?
Kumquats provide 43.9 mg of vitamin C per 100 g, which is a meaningful amount for such a small fruit. Since the entire fruit is eaten — including the peel — you get the full benefit with every bite.
Are kumquats keto-friendly?
Kumquats appear on the keto diet list, and their 6.5 g of fibre per 100 g brings the net carbohydrate figure down to around 7.4 g per 100 g. In small portions they can fit within a low-carb eating pattern.
