What are barberries. I've never heard of them. Loaf looks good.Successful low carb tea loaf using Barberries (@DJC3 got my dried barberries from Amazon) Soaked 20g of dried barberries in 150g of cold tea and generous splash of brandy overnight with mixed spice (25g)and lemon zest.

Then added to mix a few spoons at a time a mix of 100g of panda flour, 120g of eyrithritol, 25 g of baking powder plus towards end of mixing 65g of melted butter. Then folded in the strained barberries.

Sliced when cold and frozen apart from a taster had today and some left in fridge for tomorrow. A definite success - thought soaked barberries tasted a bit like currants.

Can be served with butter but it's lovely and moist so didn't need it I felt after tasting. I managed to cut 18 slices most of which I froze in a plastic bag with small pieces of kitchen towel between slices so can take out of freezer as needed.
Enjoy.
