Measure all ingredients carefully to ensure the dough's consistency and flavor, especially when adding to a bread machine.
Add the warm water, honey, olive oil, and salt to the bread machine pan in the order recommended by your bread machine's manufacturer (usually liquids first).
Layer the dry ingredients: add bread flour, whole wheat flour, and vital wheat gluten evenly over the liquid.
Create a small well in the center of the dry ingredients and add the instant yeast to ensure it does not come into direct contact with the liquids prematurely.
Place the bread machine pan into the machine and select the 'Basic' or 'Whole Wheat' cycle, depending on your machine's model. Choose your desired crust setting (light, medium, or dark).
Start the machine, letting it knead and rise the dough as per its cycle.
When the machine signals to add mix-ins (often a beep during the kneading process), add the chopped dried figs and walnuts.
Once the bread machine finishes baking, carefully remove the bread pan using oven mitts.
Turn out the loaf onto a wire rack and allow it to cool completely before slicing and serving.
