Pour the warm water into the bread machine pan.
Add the honey and olive oil to the water.
Sprinkle the salt around the edges of the liquid in the pan.
Add the whole wheat flour, bread flour, and dry milk powder to the pan, layering them in that order.
Make a small well in the center of the flour and add the active dry yeast. Ensure the yeast does not come into contact with any wet ingredients at this stage.
Add the chopped nuts evenly on top of the dry ingredients.
Place the bread machine pan into the machine and secure it properly.
Select the whole wheat or basic bread setting on your bread machine (depending on the model). Set the crust preference (light, medium, or dark) as desired.
Press start and allow the bread machine to complete the kneading, rising, and baking cycles, which usually takes approximately 3.5 hours.
Once the cycle has completed, carefully remove the bread pan using oven mitts and transfer the loaf to a cooling rack.
Allow the bread to cool completely before slicing and serving. Enjoy your hearty nut bread as is or with a spread of your choice!
