Batter

Mini Corndogs

Method

Batter Preparation

  1. 1

    Mix Dry Ingredients

    In a large bowl, whisk together the cornmeal, all-purpose flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt until well combined.

  2. 2

    Combine Wet Ingredients

    In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, egg, and vegetable oil until smooth.

  3. 3

    Combine Mixtures

    Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are okay.

Corndog Assembly

  1. 4

    Prepare Hot Dogs

    Insert a wooden skewer into each hot dog, making sure it goes in about halfway for stability.

  2. 5

    Heat Oil

    In a deep pot or fryer, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).

  3. 6

    Dip Hot Dogs

    Dip each skewered hot dog into the batter, ensuring it is fully coated.

  4. 7

    Fry Corndogs

    Carefully place the battered hot dogs into the hot oil, a few at a time, and fry until golden brown, about 3-4 minutes. Turn them halfway through for even cooking.

  5. 8

    Drain Excess Oil

    Using a slotted spoon, remove the corndogs from the oil and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil.

Serving

  1. 9

    Serve

    Serve the mini corndogs hot with your choice of dipping sauces such as mustard, ketchup, or barbecue sauce.
