Homemade Corn Dogs!!!

My kiddos and Todd LOVED these! They were definitely a fan favorite! 

INGREDIENTS

·         6 hot dogs, cut in half

·         12 lollipop sticks or Bamboo Sticks

·         vegetable oil for frying

For batter

·         ½ cup all-purpose flour

·         ½ cup cornmeal

·         2 tbsp sugar

·         2 tsp baking powder

·         ½ cup to ¾ cup milk

·         salt and pepper to taste

INSTRUCTIONS

1.       In a pan or deep fryer place at least four inches of oil, Heat the oil to 350 degrees F.

2.       Slice each hot dog in half.  Put each dog onto the lollipop sticks. You can use wooden Bamboo skewers as well.

3.       In a bowl, combine all the batter ingredients and whisk. (I would grind the cornmeal a bit more, it is really coarse and we could ‘chew’ the grit)

4.      I found it easier to pour the batter in a long skinny cup (Magic Bullet cup worked). Dip each hot dog into the cornmeal batter to completely cover the hot dog. Carefully place the hot dogs into the hot oil. Fry until golden brown, about 2 or 3 minutes. Drain on paper towels.
