  • Wash hands with soap and water for at least 20 seconds.
  • Preheat oven to 375 °F.
  • Spray a baking pan (8" x 8") with nonstick cooking spray.
  • In a small mixing bowl, combine pancake mix and water. Whisk until smooth.
  • Pour pancake batter into baking dish and bake in the oven for 35 minutes.
  • While pancakes are cooking, separate pears and syrup. Place pears in a small bowl and syrup in a medium nonstick pot.
  • Add cornstarch, pumpkin pie spice, and vanilla extract to cold or room temperature pear syrup. Whisk until smooth.
  • Heat syrup mixture on medium-high heat and whisk continuously until it begins to boil, about 5 minutes.
  • Add pears to syrup mixture. Stir. Bring mixture to a boil, about 7 minutes.
  • Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer for 3–5 minutes or until it becomes nectar-thick. Stir often to prevent pears from sticking to the pan. Heat to 140 °F or higher for at least 15 seconds. Remove from heat.
  • When pancakes are cooked completely, cut into 6 even slices. Remove pancakes from the pan.
  • Serve 1 pancake slice with ½ cup spiced pears. Serve immediately, or keep warm at 140 °F or higher.
