Super Easyyy Homemade Corn Dogs

Corn Dogs

Corn dogs are a delicious and classic American treat. Here’s a recipe to prepare them at home:

Ingredients:

For the corn dog batter:

  • 1 cup yellow cornmeal
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1 egg
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil

For the hot dogs:

  • 8-10 hot dogs
  • Wooden skewers or popsicle sticks

For frying:

  • Vegetable oil for deep frying

Instructions:

  • Prepare the hot dogs: Insert wooden skewers or popsicle sticks into each hot dog, leaving enough of the stick exposed for easy handling. This will become the handle for your corn dogs.
  • Heat the oil: Pour vegetable oil into a deep, heavy-bottomed pot or deep fryer. Heat it to 350-375°F (175-190°C). Use a thermometer to monitor the temperature.
  • Prepare the batter: In a large mixing bowl, combine the cornmeal, flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
  • Make the batter: In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, egg, and 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until you have a smooth batter.
  • Coat the hot dogs: Dip each hot dog into the cornmeal batter, making sure it’s well coated. You can also use a tall glass or container to help coat the hot dogs evenly.

  • Fry the corn dogs: Carefully place the coated hot dogs into the hot oil one at a time. Fry them in batches to avoid overcrowding the pot, which can lower the oil temperature. Fry until they are golden brown, about 3-5 minutes. Use a slotted spoon or tongs to remove the corn dogs from the oil and drain them on paper towels.
  • Serve: Serve your corn dogs hot with your favorite condiments like ketchup, mustard, or even some cheese sauce.
  • Enjoy: These corn dogs are best enjoyed immediately while they are still hot and crispy.

Note:

  • Be cautious when working with hot oil, and make sure to follow safety precautions.
  • You can experiment with different types of sausages or hot dogs for unique flavors.
  • If you want a sweeter corn dog, you can add a bit more sugar to the batter.
  • Leftover batter can be stored in the refrigerator for a day or two.

Now you can enjoy homemade corn dogs anytime you like!
