Place first 8 ingredients in a large bowl and stir. Combine honey and water in a jug and pour into flour mix, stir using a blunt knife until mix forms a dough. Tip dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for 5 minutes or until smooth. Place in a lightly oiled bowl, cover with a damp cloth and leave in a warm place for 2 hours until dough has doubled in size.

Re-knead the dough and shape into a round, place in a lightly oiled *Le Creuset 25cm Tarte Tatin Dish, cover with a damp cloth and leave in a warm place for 1 hour.

Bake in a pre-heated 220 º C oven for 30-35 minutes until bread sounds hollow when tapped. Remove from oven and allow to cool. Serve sliced with a low GI cheese and fruit platter.
