Add milk, egg, and butter to the bread machine pan. Ensure the butter is at room temperature or melted for easy mixing.
Add the all-purpose flour on top of the liquids, spreading it out evenly to cover the liquids entirely.
Sprinkle the granulated sugar, ground cinnamon, and salt over the surface of the flour. Avoid clumping as much as possible.
Make a small well in the center of the flour (without reaching the liquid below) and add the dry active yeast into the well.
Place the bread machine pan into the bread machine, secure it, and close the lid.
Start the machine using the 'Sweet' or 'Basic' bread cycle, depending on your bread machine's settings. Use a light or medium crust setting, as desired.
After the first kneading cycle completes (typically around 15-30 minutes into the program), add the chopped pecans and chopped apple. Consult your machine's manual for the appropriate 'add-ins' time if unsure.
Let the bread machine complete the mixing, rising, and baking cycles uninterrupted.
Once the bread is finished, immediately remove it from the machine and transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
Serve warm or at room temperature. Store leftover bread in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
