In a large mixing bowl, combine the ricotta cheese and pumpkin puree. Stir until well blended and smooth.
Add the maple syrup, pumpkin pie spice, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and salt to the bowl. Mix thoroughly until all the ingredients are fully incorporated.
Gently fold in the whipped cream to create a light and airy texture. Be careful not to overmix.
Spoon the mixture evenly into serving dishes or ramekins.
Optional: Sprinkle crushed graham crackers or gingersnaps on top for added crunch and flavor.
Chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld together.
Serve chilled and enjoy!
