1. 1

   In a hot skillet, toast the cloves, coriander seeds, and peppercorns.

2. 2

   Add rest of spices and toast the mixture over high heat, stirring occasionally, for about 3 minutes or until the spices begin to smoke.

3. 3

   Remove from heat, let cool, and grind together to a powder (an electric coffee grinder works well for this); set aside.

4. 4

   Pour the stock, half and half, and evaporated milk into the crock pot; stir well, cover, and turn on high.

5. 5

   Put the pureed pumpkin into a large bowl, then add the maple syrup, salt, and the now-powdered spice mixture; use a whisk to incorporate the mixture well.

6. 6

   Add the pumpkin mixture to the liquids in the crockpot, whisking it well to make sure there are no lumps.

7. 7

   Cover and let simmer on high for 2 to 3 hours.

8. 8

   Garnish servings with grated cheddar cheese and toasted cashew pieces.
