State Fair Corn Dogs
Printable recipe
Yields: 8-10 servings
1 cup yellow cornmeal
1 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 cup sugar
4 tsp. baking powder
1/4 tsp. salt
1 egg
1 cup milk
1 qt. oil for frying
16 oz. pkg. hot dogs
flour for dusting
wooden skewers
In a medium bowl combine the cornmeal, flour, sugar, baking powder and salt. Stir in eggs and milk.
Preheat oil in a fryer or deep saucepan until it reaches 375 degrees. Insert wooden skewers into one end of the hot dog, leaving enough of the skewer to hold onto.
Place about 1/4 cup of flour in a pie plate or ziplock bag and roll the hot dogs in flour to coat. Shake off excess flour. Put the cornmeal mixture in a tall glass and dip the hot dogs into the batter, coating well. Let excess batter drip back into the cup.
Fry 2-3 corn dogs at a time, until lightly browned, about 3 minutes. Flip if necessary to get even browning.
To serve, dip in ketchup, mustard - or your favorite condiments!
*** You can also make these ahead and freeze them. To reheat from frozen, put them in a preheated 400 degree oven for about 20 minutes, or until heated through.

DeleteI've never made corn dogs, but this doesn't look hard at all. Thank you for linking with See Ya In the Gumbo
ReplyDeleteIt' super easy MM and I love that I can control what goes into them :)
DeleteIs there any possible way these can be baked, rather than fried? Maybe they wouldn't be as round and pretty, but would they work?
ReplyDeleteHmmmm ... I've never really tried with this recipe, but have tried a Rachel Ray recipe http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/rachael-ray/oven-baked-corn-dogs-recipe/index.html where she bakes hers at 425 degrees F for 12-15 minutes. I think the key would be to make sure the batter isn't too thick so it doesn't slide off while baking. Hope this helps :)
