Ingredients

  • 6 hot dogs cut in half
  • 12 Lollipop sticks
  • vegetable oil for frying
For batter
  • ½ cup all-purpose flour
  • ½ cup cornmeal
  • 2 tablespoon sugar
  • 2 teaspoon baking powder
  • ¾ cup milk
  • ¼ teaspoon salt or to taste
  • ¼ teaspoon pepper or to taste

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Prepare the oil. In a large Dutch oven, pour the vegetable oil to a depth of 4 inches. Heat the oil to 350°F.
  2. Get the hot dogs ready. Stick each half hot dog onto the lollipop sticks. You can use wooden skewers as well.
  3. Prepare the corn dogs. In a bowl, combine all the batter ingredients and whisk. I found it easier to pour the batter in a long glass. Dip each hot dog into the cornmeal batter to completely cover the hot dog.
  4. Fry the corn dogs. Carefully place the hot dogs into the hot oil. Fry until golden brown, about 2 or 3 minutes. Drain on paper towels. I fried about 2 or 3 at a time. Repeat with remaining hot dogs and batter.
  5. Serve. Serve with ketchup and/or mustard.

Notes

  • These mini corn dogs can be stored in the fridge in an airtight container for 2 - 3 days. You may find they get a bit soggy so I don't recommend storing them for much longer than that. Just zap in the microwave when ready to enjoy.
  • You can freeze these treats! Just freeze them individually on a baking sheet till frozen through, around 2 hours, and store in an airtight container for up to 1 month. Pop them in the oven at 350 F degrees till heated through  when ready to eat, please don't put them in a fryer to reheat as it is not safe and could cause the oil to spit back violently.
