Dunkin Donuts Chocolate Chip Muffins recipe

For several years, when I was getting started in the New York magazine world, my regular breakfast was a muffin—usually purchased from a fast-food chain and scarfed down on my all-out sprint from the subway to the office. Not so coincidentally, these were also the years in which I steadily, gradually gained weight.

My assumption, in ordering a wholesome-looking, berry-studded muffin virtually every day, was that I was making a healthy choice. It turns out, however, that that's not necessarily the case

Even the most cursory glance at the nutrition info for various fast-food muffins will show you that there is an at times massive discrepancy between the healthiest and least healthy option. While some can make a good on-the-go breakfast, others pack in close to half of your saturated fat allotment for the day, while offering very little nutritionally in return. Simply put, it pays to know what you're about to bite into.

Since I know that not all muffins are created equal, I thought I'd offer a comparison of some of the top fast-food chains' healthiest and least healthy muffins on their current menus:

McDonald's
In recent weeks I've been seeing commercials for McDonald's new line of baked goods, which includes danishes, scones and, of course, muffins. The restaurant is initially rolling out the offering in New England and depending on how well they do here, they're considering national availability. McDonald's Multi-Grain Berry Muffin (pictured) is a pleasant surprise: it has the lowest calorie count of all the muffins I looked at and boasts a healthy 6 grams of fiber. Watch out for their Blueberry Muffin, however, which packs in 45% of the daily value of saturated fat (based on a 2, 000-calorie diet).

Best: Multi-Grain Berry Muffin (280 calories, 1 g saturated fat, 7 g protein, 51 g carbohydrates, 290 mg sodium, 6 g fiber)
Worst: Blueberry Muffin (390 calories, 9 g saturated fat, 5 g protein, 57 g carbohydrates, 290 mg sodium, 2 g fiber)
