Do you ever wonder what to do with your leftover cornbread? Yeah, me neither, until one day not long ago I looked inside my fridge and saw the mentioned leftover cornbread.  I didn’t want to throw it out because it was really tasty, but I didn’t feel like eating it as it was either. So I turned it into this delicious cornbread pudding! Custardy with hints of cinnamon and cardamom, pairs deliciously with whipped cream and fresh berries for a simple yet beautiful dessert. SO if you ever find yourself in the same predicament, here you go. You’re welcome 😉
