DIRECTIONS: Pancakes
Preheat a skillet to 350 degrees. (If using a pan, you can put it on medium-low later).
Combine the flour, brown sugar, baking powder, baking soda, pumpkin pie spice, cinnamon, ginger, cloves, nutmeg, and salt.
In a separate bowl, combine the whole milk, pumpkin purée, eggs, vanilla extract, and melted butter. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry, and stir.
Fold in the chopped pecans.
Pour your pancakes until they're the size you prefer into long ghost-like ovals, and flip when the edges become round and bubbles have formed on the surface. Place two chocolate chips as eyes on your ghosts!
Top with the pecan topping, maple syrup, and homemade whipped topping. Enjoy!
DIRECTIONS: Pecan Topping
Place the finely chopped pecans and butter onto a medium-heat pan until the butter is fully melted and the pecans are toasted. Add in the brown sugar until it dissolves. Stir until the pecans are evenly coated in the brown sugar and butter mixture.
Stir in the syrup until fully warmed, and top with cinnamon and nutmeg.
DIRECTIONS: Homemade Whipped Topping
Whip the heavy whipping cream until stiff peaks begin to form, then beat in vanilla, sugar, and cinnamon.
Stop beating once the whipped topping is at the desired consistency.
