Add whole milk, melted butter, and egg to the bread pan of your bread machine.
Sprinkle the all-purpose flour evenly over the liquid ingredients, ensuring it completely covers the liquid.
Create a small well in the center of the flour without exposing the liquid. Add the granulated sugar, salt, ground cinnamon, and active dry yeast into the well.
Place the bread pan into the bread machine and select the 'Sweet Bread' or similar setting for a 1.5-pound loaf, medium crust. Start the machine.
While the bread machine is mixing the dough (usually during the first 10 minutes), prepare the cinnamon sugar swirl by combining 3 tablespoons of granulated sugar with 1 teaspoon of ground cinnamon in a small bowl. Set aside.
Once the bread machine starts the kneading cycle for the second time (check the manual for your specific timing), pause the machine, and quickly spread the prepared cinnamon sugar mixture evenly over the partially kneaded dough. Resume the machine.
Allow the bread machine to complete its cycle, including rising and baking phases.
Once the bread is finished, carefully remove the bread pan from the machine while using oven mitts as it will be hot.
Let the bread cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Slice and serve warm or at room temperature. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
