Pour the milk into the baking pan of your bread machine.
Crack the egg and add it to the milk.
Add the butter and vanilla extract to the pan.
Carefully layer the all-purpose flour on top of the liquid ingredients to create a barrier. This ensures proper mixing later.
Sprinkle the granulated sugar, salt, and ground cinnamon evenly over the flour layer.
Make a small well in the center of the flour (without reaching the liquid layer) and add the instant yeast to the well.
Insert the pan into the bread machine and secure it properly. Close the lid.
Select the 'Sweet Bread' program on your bread machine. Set the crust color to your preference (light, medium, or dark).
Press start and allow the machine to mix, knead, rise, and bake the bread. This process typically takes around 3 hours total.
Once the bread is finished baking, carefully remove the pan from the machine (it will be hot).
Let the bread cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing and serving.
Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
