Preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer's instructions.

Whisk together the flour, baking powder, ground ginger, ground cinnamon, and a pinch of salt.

Mix the wet ingredients—molasses, eggs, and milk—in another bowl until smooth. Pour into dry ingredients and stir gently until combined.

Fold in the chopped pecans.

Pour the batter into the preheated waffle iron, filling it about three-quarters full and cook until golden brown.

Serve warm, drizzled with maple syrup.
