Keto Noodles made with Lupin Flour

Keto Noodles Made with Lupin Flour is super easy to do!  It only takes 3 ingredients to make these noodles too.

We did use a pasta machine to make these noodles.  I’m sure you can use a rolling pin but you might not get them as thin as I was able to get them when using our pasta machine.

I told a friend I made some Lupin flour noodles and the first thing she asked me was “are they bitter?”  The answer is no.  Not at all.  I’ve not tried a recipe with lupin flour that has left a bitter taste in my mouth.  Not yet anyway.  This recipe is super simple.  The hardest part about this recipe is combining the egg with the flour enough for it to be smooth and silky.  The pasta maker really does a great job of doing this.

Keto Noodles Made with Lupin Flour

Makes 3 – 1/2 cup servings of noodles

  • 3/4 cup to 1 cup Lupin Flour
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 tsp salt

Optional seasonings:  1/2 tsp parsley flakes, onion powder, basil, Italian seasoning, or thyme.

Note:  Savory noodles add 1/2 tsp onion powder and 1/2 tsp Italian seasoning.

 

Here are a few photos we took so you could see how we made them.

 

This is what the dough looks like when you combine all the ingredients.  It’s a bit sticky.

I flattened out the ball and did the first pass through the pasta machine on the thickest setting.  It will be really crumbly in the beginning but you keep doing this until the dough comes together and becomes smooth.

I wanted to show you a close up of how crumbly the dough really is in the beginning.  At this point it almost seems as thought it won’t work but it really does!  You just have to keep working the dough in the pasta machine.

It’s getting smoother and easier to roll through the pasta machine at this point.  I made the savory noodles and you can see the seasonings in the dough.

Here is a really good close up of the regular noodles without the seasonings added.  I’ve made this recipe many different times.

After you work the dough into a nice and smooth sheet of pasta, you can lay it out on a sheet of parchment paper and use a pizza cutter to cut long strips of noodles.

This shows you how we used a wide frying pan with minimal water to cook the noodles.  The water is simmering hot (not boiling) and the noodles have enough space in between so they don’t stick together when you cook them.

We coated the noodles with a little olive oil and topped it with a spaghetti meat sauce!  These noodles are fantastic!

Keto Noodles made with Lupin Flour Recipe Instructions:

  1. In a small bowl, add the eggs.  Whip them with a fork until fluffy.
  2. Add 3/4 cup of lupin flour and mix it until it’s fully combined.
  3. If the dough is sticky, add another 1/4 cup of lupin flour.
  4. The dough will not be sticky and should resemble a firm play-dough consistency.
  5. Split the dough into 3 or 4 parts.  This will make it small enough to be manageable when rolling out the pasta.
  6. Use a pasta roller machine and start rolling the dough at the highest level to make the widest dough to start.
  7. The dough will seem a bit crumbly at first.  This is totally normal.  Pick up the pieces that fall apart and add them back to the dough.  Roll out the dough and then fold it over 2 or 3 times and roll it again.
  8. Next, roll the dough 2 or 3 times and then put it back in on another side.
  9. This process is called laminating the dough and it will eventually yield a smooth dough when it’s done.
  10. Keep rolling the dough until it becomes nice and smooth.  This may take 5 times or more of rolling this through the pasta machine to achieve this.
  11. Then reduce the thickness on the pasta roller one level each time you roll it out.  Keep rolling it until you get to a #2 o #3 level.
  12. You won’t be able to get to a level #1 thickness (which is the thinest level) because this flour won’t allow it.
  13. Lay out the sheets of dough on a piece of parchment paper and cut the noodles using a pizza cutter.
  14. Simmer water in a large pan.
  15. Add noodles slowly leaving enough space in the pan so they don’t stick together.
  16. Cook them for about 2 minutes or until they turn a light color and start to float.
  17. Serve warm.  Enjoy!

    Can you make these without a pasta roller

    1. You can use a rolling pin just use a lot of strength to get it super thin like a noodle.

    2. Perhaps a tortilla press would work. Maybe roll them into thin “cigar” shapes, then press them in the tortilla press a section at a time.

  2. The noodles taste okay but I don’t think that it’s worth all the trouble

    1. 5 stars
      When you’ve been doing the keto diet for a few months and have only had Zoodles and Spaghetti Squash to curb your pasta cravings, making noodles yourself that actually look, taste, and feel like real noodles is absolutely “worth all the trouble”! And frankly, it’s not really much different than making regular pasta fresh, save for maybe a bit of extra rolling/passing through the pasta maker. If you’re a pasta monster like myself who has been unable to eat anything resembling real pasta for the last few months, these noodles are a Godsend.

    I like the taste of these noodles. I’m usually not a fan of homemade noodles, but these would be great for chicken and dumplings! I’m saving half to try as lasagna noodles

    I LOVE how EASY this recipe is to prepare! Mine did not fall apart, and I did use the other 1/4 cup of lupin flour. I did lightly dust with extra lupin flour so that my dough passed through the roller easily! So good in my turkey vegetable soup!

  5. I’m really looking forward to trying to make these noodles. All the other recipes I’ve seen, use xanthan gum or gluten, and I’m relieved to find a recipe which uses neither. I always used to make my own pasta but have been off wheat flour for 22 years, and initially I used to buy corn or rice noodles. But since 2016 I’ve been off starch so it’s been zoodles all the way! I’m truly looking forward to trying something closer to a real noodle. Thank you!
