Maple Pumpkin Cheesecake



Every year as soon as the air starts cooling off, I get out my pumpkin recipes. It doesn't seem to matter that I use canned and buy extra to keep on hand all year. I love baking with pumpkin in the autumn. It's one of those wonderful comfort tastes and smells.

Ingredients:
1 1/4 cups graham cracker crumbs
1/4 cup sugar
1/4 cup margarine or butter, melted
3 packages (8 ounces) of cream cheese
1 can (14 ounces) sweetened condensed milk
2 cups canned pumpkin
3 eggs
1/4 cup maple syrup plus extra if you wish
1 1/2 ground cinnamon
1 tsp. nutmeg
Whipped topping
1/2 cup chopped pecans
