Best Overall Muffin
Banana Pecan (340 cal) has the most fibre (9g), least sugar (20g), and fewest calories. It will keep you full for hours.
Sugar Bomb Alert
Chocolate Chip Muffin has 36g sugar — more than a can of Coke (39g). Even the "healthy-sounding" Fruit Explosion has 30g sugar.
Pair Smart
A muffin + a Double Double = 470-720 calories. Pair with black coffee (5 cal) instead to save 130-295 calories.
Half-Muffin Strategy
Eat half a muffin (170-210 cal) with a protein source like Omelette Bites (130 cal, 13g protein) for a balanced 300-340 calorie breakfast.
🔄 Healthier Alternatives
Donuts
200-360 cal • Most donuts are lower in calories than muffins — a Chocolate Dip Donut saves 200 calories vs a Chocolate Chip Muffin
Bagels
290-330 cal • A plain bagel (290 cal, 9g protein) is lower in calories and has more protein than any muffin
Timbits
50-90 cal each • Three Timbits (150-270 cal) give you a sweet treat with fewer total calories than one muffin

About Tim Hortons Muffins
Tim Hortons muffins are a popular breakfast and snack choice, but they are among the highest-calorie baked goods on the menu. Ranging from 340 calories (Banana Pecan) to 420 calories (Chocolate Chip), a single muffin can contain as much energy as a full breakfast sandwich.
The Banana Pecan Muffin (340 cal) is the lightest option and has a standout nutrition profile: 9g of fibre (32% daily value) — the highest of any Tim Hortons baked good — and just 20g sugar, the lowest among all muffins. The high fibre makes it significantly more filling than other muffins.
The Chocolate Chip Muffin (420 cal) is the heaviest, with 17g fat and 36g sugar — more sugar than a Coca-Cola can. It is the least nutritious muffin option from a macro perspective. The Wild Blueberry Muffin (380 cal) and Raisin Bran Muffin (380 cal) sit in the middle, with the Raisin Bran offering 5g fibre — the second highest.
All Tim Hortons muffins provide 5-6g of protein, which is modest. They are not a strong protein source. For a more balanced breakfast, pair half a muffin with a Latte (90-190 cal, 6-12g protein) or Omelette Bites (130 cal, 13g protein).
Sodium is a notable concern: most muffins contain 400-590mg sodium, with the Banana Pecan hitting a surprising 790mg — 34% of the daily limit. The Wild Blueberry Muffin has the second-highest sodium at 590mg. These sodium levels are unusually high for a sweet baked good and are worth watching if you eat muffins frequently.
