Add the warm water, milk, softened butter, and honey to the bread pan of your bread machine in the order recommended by the manufacturer.
Sprinkle the salt evenly over the liquid ingredients.
Add the bread flour, sunflower seeds, and chopped nuts into the bread pan, ensuring the flour covers the liquid completely.
Make a small well in the center of the flour (but not deep enough to reach the liquid) and add the active dry yeast to the well.
Secure the bread pan into your bread machine and select the Basic/White Bread Cycle. Choose the crust color of your preference (light, medium, or dark).
Press Start and let the machine knead, rise, and bake the bread as per its cycle instructions.
Once the bread completes its baking cycle, carefully remove the bread pan using oven mitts.
Turn the bread out onto a wire rack and let it cool for at least 30 minutes before slicing and serving.
Store any leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
