Add the ingredients into your bread machine in the following order (or as per your machine's manual): milk, dark rum, unsalted butter (softened), and the egg.
Layer the dry ingredients on top: all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, salt, and ground cinnamon. Make sure the liquids and dry ingredients don't mix before starting the machine.
Create a small well in the center of the dry ingredients and add the active dry yeast. Do not let the yeast come into contact with the liquids at this stage.
Set your bread machine to the Basic or White Bread setting. Use a medium or light crust setting as per your preference.
Start the machine and let it complete the kneading, rising, and baking process. This should take about 3 hours, depending on your machine.
Once the bread is finished baking, carefully remove it from the bread machine pan and let it cool on a wire rack for at least 20 minutes before slicing.
Serve warm with butter or jam, or enjoy it plain to savor the rich rum and cinnamon flavor.
