Preheat the oven to 400 degrees and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, combine the all purpose flour, whole wheat flour, baking soda, salt and thyme. Mix together, then create a well in the center of the dry ingredients.
Whisk together the eggs, buttermilk and honey until combined. Pour into the well of the flour mixture and fold over with a spatula a few times, then add in the cheese.
Continue folding until just mixed. Dough will still be a little sticky.
Lightly dust a surface with additional all purpose flour and turn out the dough. Sprinkle a little more flour over the dough and knead a few times, until the dough is tacky but not sticky.
Transfer the dough to the prepared baking sheet. Cut a cross on the top of the dough with a sharp knife.
Bake for 30-35 minutes then remove from the oven to a wire rack to cool completely. Slice and serve with butter.
