Step 1
1. Line small baking sheet with parchment paper. Melt 1 tablespoon butter in medium nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add walnuts and almonds; cook 2 to 3 minutes or until lightly browned, stirring constantly. Add maple syrup; bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Boil 1 1/2 to 3 minutes or until syrup is thickened and nuts are glazed, stirring constantly. Pour onto baking sheet; cool.
2. Whisk flour, sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg and cloves in large bowl. Whisk eggs in medium bowl until blended; whisk in milk, pumpkin, oil and vanilla. Pour into flour mixture; whisk just until blended.
3. Heat griddle to 350ºF. or large nonstick skillet over medium heat; lightly brush with melted butter. Pour 1/4 cup batter per pancake onto griddle. Cook 3 minutes or until pancakes are puffed, edges are set and underside is golden brown. Turn and cook 1 1/2 minutes or until underside is golden brown, adjusting heat as necessary. Repeat with remaining batter. Serve pancakes sprinkled with glazed nuts; accompany with additional maple syrup, if desired.
