Pour the milk and amaretto liqueur into the bread machine’s baking pan.
Add the unsalted butter and egg to the baking pan.
Sprinkle the all-purpose flour evenly over the wet ingredients to create a barrier for the yeast.
Add the ground hazelnuts, granulated sugar, and salt, ensuring the salt is placed away from the yeast to prevent it from deactivating the yeast.
Make a small well in the center of the dry ingredients and add the instant yeast.
Place the baking pan into the bread machine and select the basic or sweet bread cycle, along with your desired crust color (light, medium, or dark).
Start the bread machine and allow it to mix, knead, rise, and bake the loaf.
Once the loaf is finished baking, carefully remove it from the bread machine and let it cool on a wire rack for at least 20 minutes before slicing and serving.
