⅓ cup milk
¼ cup white sugar
¼ teaspoon nutmeg

I had some trouble getting the pecans to stick to the french toast. I think I might have used too much butter.

This recipe was a little too sweet for my taste, but I think that's because I used real maple syrup. I would probably use a different type of syrup next time.
