Warm the milk slightly (to about 110°F or lukewarm).
Add the warmed milk, butter, and egg into the bread machine pan.
Next, add the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, salt, and ground cardamom to the bread machine pan.
Make a small well in the center of the dry ingredients and add the active dry yeast.
Set the bread machine to the 'Sweet Bread' or 'Basic Bread' setting, and select your preferred crust color (light or medium is recommended for this recipe).
Start the bread machine and let it run its course. While baking, you may sprinkle pearl sugar or sliced almonds on top during the last rise if desired.
Once the bread machine cycle is complete, carefully remove the pan and let the bread cool for at least 15 minutes before slicing.
Serve warm or at room temperature, perfect with coffee or tea.
