1 tablespoon (medium) of Seedless raisin (15 g) has 45 calories. That works out to 299 calories per 100 g. It contains 11.9 g of carbs, 0.5 g of protein, 0.1 g of fat and 0.6 g of fiber. Its 0 mg of Copper covers 5% of the Daily Value. Its glycemic index is 65 (high), so it raises blood sugar quickly.
A seedless raisin is a grape that has been dried, commonly from seedless varieties such as Thompson Seedless. The drying process concentrates the grape’s sweetness, leaving small, wrinkled, chewy pieces. Raisins are eaten as a snack around the world and stirred into porridge, cereal, baked goods, salads and savoury dishes; in parts of the Mediterranean and Middle East, they also appear in rice dishes and pilafs.
They are rich in natural sugars and carbohydrates, with some fibre. A small handful adds sweetness to a meal, while pairing them with plain yoghurt or nuts makes a more substantial snack. Their concentrated sweetness means a little can go a long way.

An EatBetter score computed from fiber, protein and calorie density. A high score means staying full longer on the same calories.
Both scores are calculated per 100 g and do not change with the selected portion. The satiety score is EatBetter's own calculation, not a clinical measure.

Seedless raisins can be a useful snack because they provide fiber and iron, and their natural sugars supply quick energy. They are concentrated dried fruit, so pair a modest portion with a more filling food.
No, dogs must not eat seedless raisins. Raisins can cause sudden kidney failure in dogs, and even a small amount may be dangerous; contact a veterinarian promptly if your dog eats any.
Seedless raisins are made by drying seedless grapes until most of their water is removed. The grapes may be sun-dried or dried with warm air; the dried fruit becomes smaller, darker, and sweeter-tasting.
Sultanas are a type of seedless raisin, traditionally made from light-colored grapes; the word is used differently across countries. In many shops, “raisin” and “sultana” describe products that differ mainly in grape variety, color, or processing.
Rinsing seedless raisins under cool running water can remove dust from their surface. Drain them well and dry them before storing, since leftover moisture can encourage mold and make the raisins clump together.
Keep seedless raisins in a tightly sealed container in a cool, dry, dark cupboard. Refrigeration can help in a warm or humid kitchen; discard them if you see mold or notice an unusual sour smell.
Yes, seedless raisins can be frozen in an airtight freezer-safe container. They do not need thawing before being added to oatmeal or baking, and sealing them well helps prevent them from picking up freezer odors.
To plump seedless raisins, soak them in warm water until they soften, then drain and pat them dry before adding them to batter. For extra flavor, soak them in juice or tea instead.
Yes, seedless raisins can raise blood sugar because drying concentrates their natural sugars. People with diabetes can include them in a measured portion, but should account for them in their meal plan and monitor their own response.
No, seedless raisins are naturally sweet and generally do not need added sugar. Check the ingredient list if you want to avoid sweetened products, especially when buying flavored or coated dried fruit.
