Banana Split Cupcakes--Gluten-free

Wendy Gabbe Day brought these extraordinary cupcakes to the NWVEG Compassionate Thanksgiving potluck in Portland. Determined to track down the recipe, I went to her website and there they were. I made them for my husband's birthday and he found them as irresistible as I did. The garbanzo bean flour was easy to find at New Seasons. They have oat flour too, but I really prefer the texture I get when I grind my own.

Major Ingredients: 

Mango Pie

This pie combines standard flour-based pie crust with an unconventional filling: sliced mangoes! Sprinkled with vanilla, sugar, and ginger, it brings variety to the Thanksgiving table.
