1. Preheat your oven to 375°F. In a medium-sized mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
2. In a separate mixing bowl, whisk together the milk, egg, melted butter, ginger, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, and 1/4 cup of maple syrup until smooth.
3. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until just combined.
4. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Once hot, pour in half of the batter to form a pancake. Cook for 1-2 minutes or until the edges start to curl and the surface is set.
5. Flip the pancake and cook for another minute or until cooked through. Transfer the pancake to a plate and repeat with the remaining batter.
6. While the pancakes are cooking, bring the water and 1/4 cup of maple syrup to a boil in a medium-sized saucepan over high heat. Reduce the heat to low and add the pears. Cook for 10-15 minutes or until the pears are tender and poached.
7. To serve, divide the pancakes between plates and place a few poached pears on top of each one. Drizzle with the remaining maple syrup and a dollop of crème fraiche. Enjoy your delicious gingerbread dutch baby with poached maple pears and creme fraiche!
