• To make the dough:
• In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, yeast, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg.
• In a small bowl heat butter and honey to warm. Add the milk and eggs and whisk to combine.
• Stir well with a wooden spoon until the ingredients are completely incorporated.
• Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and allow the dough to rise (it will not quite double in volume) for 60 minutes in a warm (not hot) place.

To make the apples:

• Place all the ingredients in a medium bowl, stir well and set aside.
• After the first rise, uncover the dough and deflate by gently stirring once or twice.
• Spoon half of the dough into a prepared loaf pan which has been sprayed liberally with baking spray.
• Top the layer of dough with half of the prepared diced apples (draining the apples first if there is excessive liquid in the bowl). 
• Top the apples with the remaining dough and top the second layer of dough with the remaining apples.
• Allow the bread to rise again in a warm, draft-free place for 50 - 60 minutes.

To bake the bread:

• Preheat the oven to 350-degrees Fahrenheit.
• Place the loaf pan on a baking sheet and bake in a preheated oven for 70-90 minutes, or until a pick or skewer inserted in the center comes out clean.
• Place the loaf pan on a cooling rack for 30 minutes, and then turn the loaf out of the pan and cool completely before slicing.
