  3. Make a well in the flour and add the buttermilk and runny honey, start mixing
  4. Add the fruit and the thyme and mix to bring to a dry dough, it's easier to use your hands at this stage.

  6. Sprinkle some flour on top of the ball and slash a deep cross into the loaf
  7. Bake in the oven, check after 30 mins by tapping the bottom of the bread, if it sounds hollow it should be cooked but if not cook for another 10 mins if necessary.
