Fresh Pasta Using Lupin Flour: Will It Work??

I do a low carb diet most days, with the odd cheat day. I'm always looking into different ways to make high carbohydrate foods. While at my local supermarket I spotted a pack of Lupin flour. I’ve heard good things about it, but had never used it. Lupin flour is extremely low carb and KETO friendly, with only 1 gram of carbs per quarter cup!

Its important to note different lupin flours have different tastes, having a slight bitterness. The one I used was very good and had minimal taste to it. I cooked it in a lasagna and it turned out great!

Looking at a few recipes, I have tweeked my own recipe:

150g lupin flour (plus extra for dusting)
1 teaspoon xanthan gum (this will bind it all)
3 large eggs

I suggest using a pasta machine like I have, it makes it so much easier. This was my first time in years making pasta so please be nice :)

Directions:
1. Stir xanthan gum into the lupin flour
2. Add the eggs and stir to bring together. Add a few drops of water if needed
3. Bring the dough to a ball and cover for 10 minutes
4. Add a little lupin flour to the bench and knead until smooth
5. Roll out the dough so it is more manageable for the pasta machine
6. On the largest setting, roll the dough though 3 times, folding it over each time
7. Roll the dough on the next thinner setting. Cut pasta to make more manageable.
8. Continue rolling and decreasing the setting until you are happy with it. I did mine from setting 1 to setting 7
9. Pasta is now ready to be cooked!Music used:
