Lupin Flakes pack a seriously tasty powerful punch. Lupin Flakes have high sources of combined protein and fibre, this Aussie-grown little legume is gluten free, low GI and only 4% carbs. Plus they’re rich in calcium, potassium, magnesium and iron. Lupin incredible!

The Lupin Co Lupin Flakes originate from Australian Sweet Lupin (ASL) seed (Lupinus Angustifolius) and are a Legume selected specifically for the low alkaloids (low bitterness/bean/green flavour). Approx 95% of all sweet lupin is grown in Australia and of this over 85% is grown in Western Australia (WA).

Classic breeding comes from Mediterranean varieties which were introduced to WA during the early 1960’s. Our lupins are harvested from the above-ground pods formed on the plant, cleaned and sized on farm, followed by careful removal of the outer husk (lupin hull) which is mainly hemi-cellulose fibre.

Then follows a triple colour analysis to make sure we have only the beautiful golden lupin endosperm. A multiple dry size reduction process then follows with the final step being to produce delicate and versatile flakes. The process is all done at a temperature not exceeding 36C, measured throughout the process by laser thermometers.

    Amazing products – lowest carb lupins available! The flour is great to integrate into baking to help boost the nutritional value of the flours used. This past week I made lupin tortilla chips, which are super easy and have amazing flavor. I use the lupin flakes as a side dish/ starch substitute or use it to crumb meats such as salmon or chicken.

    I was dubious as to how fast these would become tender. I went from the pack to a fully made (and delicious) dip in 10minutes. Ive also made a high protein lupin based tofu! They’re Fantastic and have contributed greatly to my weight loss succces!

      Greetings Robert – thanks for sharing your experience with our Lupin Flakes. The Dip is certainly a popular option for the flakes as it is so easy to make. Using the flakes for Tofu just about puts you in the ‘chef’ category – :-). Very pleased to hear the Flakes have helped with your diet. All the best – David

      Hi Julia – certainly working on having the flakes ranged along with the other products in Perth. Perhaps try Health Food Stores and Independent/IGA’s. Won’t be too long and lupin products will be all over Australia – cheers – David
