so I probably deleted the EFI partition that was there with Windows when I
started installing Debian.
The installer It lets me create efi (not /boot/efi), but when I add a /boot
partition, it doesn't let me put an On for bootable flag if the EFI has that
flag already. I guess only one partition canhave a bootable flag. Which one
should I assign it to?
Thanks Matthew!

You will need to have both a /boot/efi partition, and a /boot partition,
for encrypted boot.
So your partition table would need to look like this for what you want
to accomplish:
/boot/efi
/boot
LUKS - /
LUKS - /swap
LUKS - /home
That said I'm not an expert on EFI installation via the Debian
installer. Can someone else chime in please?
