Add the ingredients to your bread machine pan in the order recommended by the manufacturer. Generally, this means liquids first: pour the warm water and milk into the pan.
Add the unsalted butter, honey, and salt to the liquid ingredients.
Measure and add the bread flour, ensuring it covers the liquids completely. This helps create a barrier so the yeast does not activate prematurely.
Make a small well in the flour and add the instant yeast into the well. Be careful not to let the yeast touch the liquids at this stage.
Close the bread machine lid and set the machine to the Basic or White Bread cycle, with a medium crust color (or according to your machine's settings).
Start the machine, and as it begins to knead the dough, monitor it in the first few minutes to ensure all ingredients are combining properly. If the dough seems too dry, add water 1 teaspoon at a time until it forms a smooth dough ball. If it's too sticky, add flour 1 teaspoon at a time.
After the initial kneading or when the add-in alarm sounds (if your machine has this feature), add the dried cranberries and chopped pecans.
Allow the bread machine to complete its cycle, including the rising and baking stages.
Once the bread is fully baked, carefully remove the pan from the machine, and turn the bread out onto a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
