Corn Dog Ingredients

Method

Corn Dog Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare Hot Dogs

    Insert a wooden skewer into each hot dog, pushing it about halfway through.

  2. 2

    Make the Batter

    In a large bowl, whisk together cornmeal, all-purpose flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt. In another bowl, combine milk and egg, then add to the dry ingredients. Stir until combined; the batter should be thick.

  3. 3

    Heat Oil

    In a deep pot or fryer, heat vegetable oil to 350°F (175°C).

  4. 4

    Dip and Fry

    Dip each skewer with a hot dog into the batter, coating it evenly. Carefully place it into the hot oil and fry for about 4-5 minutes until golden brown. Repeat with remaining hot dogs.

  5. 5

    Drain and Serve

    Remove the corn dogs from the oil and let them drain on paper towels. Serve hot with your favorite dipping sauces.
