I swear to you there is a national day for anything and today happens to be National Pumpkin Day, just in case you were wondering. So what better day to share with you my Pumpkin Ricotta pancakes than today!
After all, if your family is anything like mine, you have probably had your lives revolving around pumpkins, so you might as well start your day with them! Nothing can top these pumpkin ricotta pancakes Halloween morning.
Our neighbor had the kids over to carve pumpkins this weekend. It always more fun to give a large group of kids knives, right? And she is crazy enough to have us all over for some knife slinging.
The kids did get a little help from the grown ups.
And the pumpkins turned out so cute!
Except Boo is always fooling around.
How to Make Pumpkin Pancakes
I served my pumpkin ricotta pancakes with cinnamon and honey butter sprinkled with cinnamon powdered sugar. I could probably eat these pancakes till I was sick. Luckily we had to physical leave the house so I had to tear myself away. You've got to try out this fun pancake recipe! The kids will love it too!

YUM! I'm going to go to someone else's home a cook these things because my eaters are way too picky. OR maybe I will just sneak it on them, and they will have to deal! It's getting to O.K. Corral time at the Wallpe dinner table! ๐ Keep these awesome recipes coming.
