1 1/2 cups walnuts, coarsely chopped
3/4 cup firmly packed dark brown sugar
1/4 cup pure maple syrup
1 (15 ounce) can pumpkin puree
1 (12 ounce) can evaporated milk
3/4 cup white sugar
2 large eggs, lightly beaten
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
1/2 teaspoon salt

1
Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.

Toss the walnuts, brown sugar and maple syrup in a small mixing bowl.

Combine the pumpkin, milk, sugar, eggs, spices and salt in a medium mixing bowl. Mix well.
