Corn Dog Recipe: Easy Homemade Classic


Description

These homemade corn dogs are a fun and delicious treat that bring the carnival to your kitchen. With a crispy, golden batter and juicy beef frankfurters, they’re perfect for a snack or meal, and can be served with your favorite dipping sauce.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup yellow cornmeal
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • ¼ cup white sugar
  • 4 teaspoons baking powder
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • ⅛ teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1 egg
  • 1 quart vegetable oil for frying
  • 2 (16 ounce) packages beef frankfurters
  • Wooden skewers

Instructions

  1. Combine cornmeal, flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, and pepper in a medium bowl. Stir in milk and egg to make the batter.
  2. Heat oil in a deep fryer or large saucepan to 375°F (190°C).
  3. Pat frankfurters dry and insert a skewer into each one.
  4. Roll frankfurters in batter until well coated.
  5. Fry 2 or 3 corn dogs at a time in the preheated oil until lightly browned, about 3 minutes.
  6. Drain on paper towels.
  7. Serve and enjoy!

Notes

  • If you don’t have a deep fryer, use a large saucepan for frying.
  • Make sure the oil is hot enough (375°F) to ensure the batter crisps up properly.
  • For extra flavor, serve with mustard or your favorite dipping sauce.
