Scottish Honey Bread

Mix the yeast and honey with water until diluted.  Add salt to the flour and pour onto a cold surface. Make a well in the centre of the flour and gradually pour the liquid into the flour to make a dough.  Knead the dough until smooth. Cover with a damp cloth or put the bowl into a plastic bag, keep it in a warm place and proof the dough until it doubles in size.  

Knead the dough again and put into a bread tin. Again, cover it or put it in a plastic bag, leave in a warm place until it doubles in size. Place the loaf into a hot oven (200C) with a tray of water in the bottom of the oven and bake for 45 minutes.

The loaf is cooked when you can hear a hollow sound when you tap it. Leave the loaf on the cooking tray to cool.
