Is lupine flour toxic?

Hi everyone looking for lupins I saw that they are very protein and then I discovered lupine flour (They have 36 to 43 grams of protein depending on the product). But I have read that raw lupins are toxic. So is flour too? And if, for example, I use it for pan cakes, cooking in a pan is enough to make it non-toxic if it were?

if someone uses them and knows how to tell me more I would be grateful.

this is the lupine

@arrachidi I‘m not a expert or something so I just googled for you :) Lupines used for nutritional purpose are Sweet lupines. These are different from the wild varieties or the ones planted in gardens. The wild ones are poisonous, sweet lupines can be consumed raw.
