Lupin Flour (also: Lupine flour | Sweet lupin flour | Lupin bean flour). Slightly nutty, mild. High protein, high fibre. Bright yellow.
Naturally gluten-free. ⚠ EU Annex II MAJOR ALLERGEN. Cross-reactivity with peanut allergy (must declare): with a peanut allergy, talk to your allergy clinician before you try it. Many gluten-free resources overlook this allergen, so always check the ingredient list yourself.
