Ingredients
- 1 15-ounce container part-skim ricotta
- 2 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice
- ¼ cup unsweetened canned pumpkin purée
- 1 tablespoon maple syrup plus extra for serving
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- For serving: graham crackers, shortbread cookies, gingersnap cookies, apples, pears
Instructions
- Combine all ingredients in a food processor. Puree for a few seconds until smooth.
- Transfer to a serving bowl and swirl the top with the back of a spoon. Drizzle with additional maple syrup and serve.
Notes
- Serve with: apple slices, graham crackers, gingersnap or snickerdoodle cookies, nilla wafers, cinnamon sugar-coated pie crust chips, pretzels or pretzel chips, toasted bread or crostini
- I use part-skim ricotta cheese, but you could use whole milk ricotta – it will have a thicker, creamier texture and be a bit richer.
- Instead of maple syrup, you can use vanilla extract or brown sugar to sweeten the pumpkin ricotta.
- Garnish the pumpkin ricotta dip with mini chocolate chips, cookie crumbs, a drizzle of caramel, a dusting of pumpkin spice, or a pinch of kosher salt.
- If you’re feeling really ambitious, you can make your own pumpkin purée from roasted pumpkin, but I like to stick to store-bought for ease.
- Leftover whipped pumpkin ricotta dip should be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days.
