Corn Dogs
Ingredients
- 1 cup yellow cornmeal
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1/8 tsp black pepper
- 4 tsp baking powder
- 1 egg
- 1 cup milk
- 1 quart vegetable oil for frying
- 2 (16 ounce) packages beef frankfurters
- 16 wooden skewers
Instructions
- In a medium bowl, combine cornmeal, flour, salt, pepper, sugar and baking powder. Stir in eggs and milk.
- Preheat oil in a deep saucepan over medium heat. Insert wooden skewers into frankfurters. Roll frankfurters in batter until well coated.
- Fry 2 or 3 corn dogs at a time until lightly browned, about 3 minutes. Drain on paper towels.
Notes
Works well to briskly spin the skewer while dripping the coating along the length. Doesn't need to be perfect because it puffs up very well during the frying.
