Instructions
Whisk together pumpkin puree, apple juice, sugar, cloves, ginger, and cinnamon in a saucepan until smooth. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to medium-low, and simmer until the mixture has reached the consistency of applesauce. About 10 minutes.
Meanwhile, pulse pecans and bread crumbs in a food processor until the pecans are finely chopped.
Pour into a shallow dish, and press pork chops into the mixture to coat.
Heat oil in a skillet over medium-high heat.
Add breaded pork chops and cook until golden brown on both sides and cooked through, about 4 minutes per side.
Remove and drain on a paper towel-lined plate.
Serve the pork chops with a dollop of pumpkin butter.
