I love to cook, because seriously who wants to take four kids to a restaurant? All kidding aside, I love to try to new foods and my family is usually pretty open to my ideas.

Bread pudding gone wild! Cornbread as a base, with caramel, banana and a touch of ginger.

Corn muffins or leftover cornbread make this decadent dessert—reminiscent of Bananas Foster—a snap. Be sure to crumble the muffins into large chunks. Serve warm with vanilla ice cream or caramel sauce.
