Low-carbohydrate, rich in fiber and protein pure lupin flour without additives, light, finely ground, with a pleasant delicate aroma.
Lupin belongs to the bean family of plants, meaning it is related, albeit to soybeans. While the greatest diversity of lupine species is on the American continents, the plant can be found practically all over the world, and its crops are also found in Poland. While many varieties are poisonous due to their alkaloid content, some species are used as a feed ingredient, as well as a raw material for making low-carbohydrate flours.
Lupin flour is made from ground sweet lupin seeds. The grinding of the lupine seeds results in a flour that has a grain structure that somewhat resembles corn flour. Ground lupine seeds (lupine flour) can be slightly salty, sweet, and even have a hint of bitterness in them - in fact, it is practically undetectable.
Lupinflour is an ideal substitute for wheat flour and, due to its delicate taste, neutral character and other features, it is readily used for baking bread - making bread, rolls and other baked goods. It has excellent binding properties, which is important for gluten-free keto baking. When combined with water, it can serve as an egg substitute. In addition, it prolongs the freshness of baked goods. For this reason, it is often used in making breads, pancakes, cakes, pies, waffles, desserts, dumplings, pasta and pies. When preparing dishes with lupin flour, remember to add more liquids. Unlike white flour, lupin flour is distinguished by its low carbohydrate and fat content and high protein and fiber content.

So if you are on a ketogenic diet (keto diet), be sure to consider introducing lupin flour into your daily cooking).
Lupin flour is recommended to everyone on the keto diet for a reason. It's an excellent source of fiber, as well as a solid serving of protein.

This is much lower than that of white wheat flour so it is also a safe option for all diabetics. Due to its high protein content, it's a great alternative recommended for vegans and vegetarians who don't eat meat.
Thehigh fiber content is the biggest advantage of lupin flour, which is why it is so popularly used for cooking in the keto (low carb) diet. It not only helps regulate the bowel cycle and support digestive processes. Fiber also satisfies hunger, lowers glucose and cholesterol levels. The presence of lupin flour in dishes, unlike white flour, also lowers the glycemic load of dishes.
Of course, it is also worth mentioning that lupin flour is a source of B vitamins (like other legumes), as well as essential antioxidants and amino acids.

No more bread or pasta - at least in the traditional way. Putting aside such traditional dietary items for many people can be a big problem. This is when you need to reach for suitable low-carb replacements.
