Hot Dogs

Method

Batter Preparation

  1. 1

    Mix Dry Ingredients

    In a large mixing bowl, combine the cornmeal, all-purpose flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt. Whisk together until well blended.

  2. 2

    Add Wet Ingredients

    In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, egg, and 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Do not overmix; it's okay if there are a few lumps.

Assemble Corn Dogs

  1. 3

    Prepare Hot Dogs

    Insert wooden skewers or lollipop sticks into each mini hot dog, ensuring they're secure and can be held easily.

  2. 4

    Coat Hot Dogs

    Dip each skewered hot dog into the batter, coating it evenly. Allow excess batter to drip off.

Frying

  1. 5

    Heat Oil

    In a deep fryer or a large pot, heat 3 cups of vegetable oil to 375°F (190°C).

  2. 6

    Fry Corn Dogs

    Carefully lower the coated hot dogs into the hot oil, a few at a time. Fry until golden brown, about 3-4 minutes, turning occasionally to ensure even cooking.

  3. 7

    Drain Excess Oil

    Remove the corn dogs from the oil using a slotted spoon and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain any excess oil.

Serve

  1. 8

    Enjoy!

    Serve the mini corn dogs hot with your choice of dipping sauces like ketchup, mustard, or BBQ sauce.
