Mix the yeast, water, honey and syrups together and set aside
In another bowl, incorporate the flour and the rest of the dry ingredients
Pour the wet mix gradually into the dry mix and combine together
Knead for long enough to get a smooth dough forming. If using a stand mixer with a dough hook, this should be no longer than 2 lots of 5 minutes
Once incorporated, cover the bowl with a shower cap or damp cloth and let it rise until double in size
Remove from the bowl, knock back the air out of it and then shape accordingly
Place the shaped dough in the proving basket or greased bread tin. Let it rise for another 30 mins to an hour until proved
Prior to baking, slice 4 to 5 slashes across the top of the bread prior to cooking in the oven at 200℃ for 25 - 30 minutes.

If using a proving basket, tip out onto a baking stone or preheated try prior to baking. Slash the top side once tipped out.
