What it is

Lupin flour is made from the seeds of the lupin plant, a legume grown in the Mediterranean and South America. The seeds are typically cooked and dried before being milled into flour. It is a good source of protein and fiber.

Why it's used

Lupin flour is used as a gluten-free and high-protein alternative to wheat flour in baked goods like cookies, pasta, and breads. Manufacturers add it to boost protein and fiber content, and to improve texture and moisture in products.

Health notes

Lupin flour is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use in food. It is a source of protein and fiber, which are beneficial components of a balanced diet. The Joint FAO/WHO Expert Committee on Food Additives (JECFA) has evaluated lupin, but did not set a numeric acceptable daily intake (ADI). Lupin is a known allergen for some individuals, particularly those with peanut allergies.

Allergen info

Lupin is not one of the nine FDA major allergens. However, it is a legume and can cause allergic reactions in some people, especially those with peanut allergies. It does not contain gluten.
