Cooking instruction summary:
Add all ingredients but dates and pecans to bread pan in order given. Select dough cycle. Add dates and pecans when machine beeps that it is OK to add extras. OR, do what I do and knead dates and pecans into dough after you remove it from the bread machine and before you divide it into 3 pieces as described below.When dough cycle is complete and dough has risen to double inside bread machine, remove dough to floured surface or silicone baking mat (my favorite). Divide into three equal pieces and roll each into a 15-inch rope. Braid ropes, pinching ends together and then tucking under at each end.Place braid on silicone mat or parchment paper. Cover with tea towel and let rest in warm spot until nearly doubled in size-about 1 hour.Combine sugar and cardamom in small bowl for topping. Brush twist lightly with milk and sprinkle sugar mixture evenly over bread.Bake at 375 F for 25-30 minutes or until 190 degrees internal temperature. Allow to cool if you can wait that long.
