STATE FAIR MINI CORN DOGS



State Fair Mini Corn Dogs image

After reading several other corn dog recipes on here I couldn't find one that was really what I was looking for and took what I had around the house. I went into experiment mode and this is what I came up with. They are very similar in taste to the state fair corn dogs that come in the box. I used ballpark all beef franks. My toddlers DEVOURED. I kept the recipe small, since it was an experiment.

Time 20m

Yield 12 mini corn dogs, 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

4 hot dogs
1/4 cup self-rise cornmeal
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons granulated sugar
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/3 cup milk
1 tablespoon water (may need more)
oil (for frying)

Steps:

  • Heat oil to 375F.
  • Get out 4 thawed hot dogs and lay on paper towels to dry.
  • Combine all dry ingredients and blend well.
  • Stir in Milk.
  • Add just enough water so that it sticks well to the spoon without running off.
  • Finish patting dry the hot dogs
  • I cut my hot dogs into thirds and make bite size corn dogs.
  • Take a paper sucker stick, put it into one side of the hot dog, dip it into the bowl of batter and spoon batter over to evenly coat.
  • Put it into the deep fryer, using another stick to push it off of the other
  • I suggest holding it up a little bit with the stick if you are using a deep fryer with a basket, this will allow the bottom to begin cooking before it gets caught in the basket.
  • Fry until golden brown, about 5 minutes. Let cool on paper towels to remove excess oil.
  • Prep time does not include the amount of time it takes individual deep fryers to heat up.
