I have found this easy recipe and you don't need a bread maker! Could it be adapted to the girl diet? For example what does the salt actually do i.e. could just you leave it out? Also is honey, and sunflower/pumpkin seeds ok on the girl diet? I think sesame seeds are ok so I guess you could use these instead of the other seeds? Could you just use entirely white flour and leave out the wholemeal flour ( I think wholemeal is not ok for the girl diet)? The bread on in-gender uses half normal white flour and half organic flour. What would be the point of using organic flour? Lastly if honey is not ok could you replace it with splenda and maybe add in more water to get the mix correct?? This looks like a really easy recipe so it would be great if it could be adapted to the girl diet and then that means I won't need to buy bread maker? thanks heaps

A lot of people are put off making bread because they think of it as a time consuming exercise. If you fall into that camp then give this super quick bread a whirl. It’s a simple one mix dough that you don’t have to let rise because it rises in the oven during the first stage of low temperature cooking. Makes 2 loaves.
Ingredients
2 cups boiling water
4 tsp honey
2 cups cold water
7 tsp dry yeast granules
2¾ cups high-grade white flour
2¾ cups wholemeal flour
3 tsp salt
2 cups sunflower seeds
4 tbsp pumpkin seeds
Measurement Conversion Calculator
Method
Preheat oven to just 80ºC and grease and line two 25 x 10cm loaf tins with baking paper.
In a large bowl, mix the boiling water with the honey to dissolve. Add the cold water and yeast and put to one side for 10 minutes.
Whisk the yeast mixture then add white and wholemeal flour, salt and sunflower seeds and mix with a large spoon until evenly combined. (The mixture will be a very loose, wet batter.)
Divide mixture between prepared loaf tins, spread evenly and flatten the top. Sprinkle 2 tbsp pumpkin seeds over the top of each loaf and, run a sharp knife through the top of each loaf in at least 3 or 4 places so it rises evenly without splitting.
Bake for 20 minutes at 80ºC and then turn up the oven to 210˚C and bake for a further 30-40 minutes. When cooked, the loaves will sound hollow when tapped. Turn out of the tins while still hot and leave to cool. This bread stays fresh for several days and toasts well.
