I love this recipe because it’s easy enough to make on a whim (these were built for crisp Sunday mornings) and just as simple as your favorite homemade pancake recipe. But they’re so spatula-licking good that they’ve become my go-to breakfast recipe for entertaining guests or preparing holiday brunch in the fall or winter.

The flavor and texture of these flapjacks is so good that you might not even miss adding butter or syrup on top, though I still like to drown my pancakes in maple syrup for good measure.
If you’re still on the fence about giving this a try, how about an eater testimonial? These pumpkin ricotta pancakes are so good, according to my dad, that they belong on a resort brunch menu. A biased source? Perhaps. But he happens to be right (I think).
This recipe is a great way to use up any leftover pumpkin puree from another recipe. Planning on cracking open a new can of pumpkin to make yourself some of these flapjacks? Use the rest to make this cozy pumpkin spice latte bread or vegan pumpkin banana bread.
