From one prune to a full cup

Dried prunes, not plums

These are dried prunes that haven't been stewed. Fresh plums are a different food with their own numbers.

Most of their calories come from carbs, 18.2 g in 3 prunes, and 10.9 g of those carbs are sugar.

Adding them to oatmeal or yogurt? Oats and Greek yogurt are in the calorie references.

Dried or stewed

Stewed prunes have 107 calories per 100 g, less than half the 240 in dried prunes. Stewing adds water, so the same weight holds less fruit.
