Lupine and the Peanut Free Diet

Lupine, or lupin, refers to the seeds of plants in the genus Lupinus. These seeds are used in various food products due to their high protein content and fiber. Lupine flour is often used in baking, and whole lupine seeds are consumed as snacks or added to dishes similar to beans. However, lupine is a legume like peanuts and soybeans, and it can trigger allergic reactions in some people, especially those with peanut allergies.
