Keto Gozleme made with Lupin Flour
Possibly my most controversial recipe Mad Creations Keto Gozleme. This dough does have Lupin flour as one of the 2 ingredients. While many following Banting may rule it out, I say to consider it.
As an insulin resistance sufferer, I am very careful with my diet, and think about what I put in my mouth and how it is going to affect my insulin and blood sugar. Any many articles I have read, how it can work to improve my insulin sensitivity and reduce cholesterol and risk of cardiovascular disease.
For many of the health reasons, I chose to use Lupin. While it is not the Banting Green List, you must consider that, that list is based on a dietary recommendation spanning back than 100 years a continent away. Lupin is prevalent to Australia, and may not ever have been tested in what foods do affect your body in a positive or negative way.
If you or any of your family have an allergies to Peanuts, then please do not even consider Lupin, as it can cause similar allergic reactions as peanuts.
I have included an Almond Flour option, that will be tested by my delightful and hard working testers, and give you feedback. I will say that Lupin Flour is incredible in baked goods, and these gozlemes, taste closer to a wheat flour option, then anything I have made since going LCHF.
I look forward to creating recipes that use more of it. I will be adding some alternative on lowcarbmixers Fb page so stay tuned, for a few fillings, and maybe even some pretzel bombs!

Has the almond flour recipe been released?
Hi Christine, I know I answered you through messenger but for the benefit of others no as it was not a good result at all.
What brand lupin flour do you use? The brand I have is 8.5g carbs per 100g.
What brand lupin flour to use? Mine is about 8.5g Carbs per 100g which results in much more than 1g carb…
Hi. I’m new to this site and only two weeks into a low-carb life. I’ve been missing bread so will be trying a few recipes I’ve seen here.
I was curious about the carbs in lupin flour too and found this info on lowcarbinspirations… hope it’s ok to post Megan (please delete if not)
HOW MANY CARBS DOES LUPIN HAVE?
Because we’re trying to eat a low carb/Keto diet, it’s important to know how many carbs are in this type of flour. You’ll find that there are 74 calories in 1/4 cup of Lupin Flour. This breaks down to 2g fat, 12g total carbs, 11g fiber, 1g sugar, and 12g protein. This makes it a total of 1 net carb per 1/4 cup serving! That’s low carb flour!
Thanks for all the geat recipes I have yet to try.
I have heard that lupin flour is very bitter. Does this gozleme have a bitter aftertaste?
Hi Sharna, to be completely honest it has been so long since I made this it would be hard to say. I do remember that both Dave and I thought they tasted the closest to the real thing at the time of making and it seems that people have been enjoying them over the years. I guess it could be up to personal taste like those who hate coconut flour or different sweeteners.
I think it depends where your lupin was grown. Apparently the Australian lupin is quite different to European and USA. I could only find lupin flakes (from Australia) so I ground them in my spice grinder to make flour and it was not bitter at all
