Servings: 8
Calories: 189kcal
Ingredients
- 1 cup stone ground yellow corn meal
- 1 cup all purpose flour
- salt & pepper to taste
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 4 tsp baking powder
- 1 egg
- 1 1/8 cups milk
- vegetable oil for frying
- 2 16 oz pkgs beef hot dogs
- 16 long wooden skewers
Instructions
- Add the dry ingredients to a large mixing bowl. Whisk them together until evenly combined.
- Pour in the milk & crack the egg into the bowl. Whisk the mixture again, just until the batter has come together.
- Add the oil to a large pot, and heat until a thermometer reads 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Insert a skewer into the center of each hot dog until all the hot dogs are skewered.
- Dip the hot dogs into the batter, rolling them from side to side until they're evenly covered. Let any major excess batter drip off, but don't wait too long.
- Working with 2-3 battered dogs at a time, cook them in the hot oil until the batter's set and they're golden brown- about 3 minutes or so.
- Remove the fried corn dogs to a paper towel lined plate to drain them of any excess grease. Repeat until all the dogs are fried.
- Serve them warm with ketchup & mustard, for dipping.
