Homemade Corn Dogs

If you like corn dogs you are going to love this recipe. Not only are these corn dogs delicious they aren’t as intimidating to make as you might think.
The batter is easy to make and comes together quickly. I think the batter is what makes the corn dogs so special and the batter is what makes the corn dogs taste exactly like the corn dogs your get at the fair. Homemade Corn Dogs are best served with ketchup and mustard.

Carnival Classic

Corn Dogs are a carnival and fair classic. Who hasn’t had a corn dog at the carnival, state fair or at the ball park. Funnel Cakes might be considered the
“Queen of the Fair” but Corn Dogs are considered the “King of the Fair.” Adults and kids of all ages love corn dogs. Just as baseball games and hot dogs go together, corn dogs and state or county fairs go together.

Popular Fair Foods

Not only are Funnel Cakes and Corn Dogs a hit at the fair so is just about anything and everything that is served on a stick. Every state fair has its own specialties….here is a short list of some fair food “On-a-Stick” served at the Wisconsin State Fair. Bacon brats, chocolate crullers On-a-Stick, deep-fried cheesecake, deep-fried pretzel-crusted brownies and Door County cherry pie on-a-stick, to name just a few.

Homemade Corn Dogs

 

Ingredients

  • 1 (10 count) package
    hot dogs of your choice
  • 1 1/2 cups
    yellow cornmeal
  • 1 1/4 cups
    flour
  • 1/4 cup
    sugar
  • 1 tablespoon
    baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon
    salt
  • 1
    egg, beaten
  • 1 1/2 cups
    buttermilk
  • 1 tablespoon
    oil
  • 1 tablespoon
    honey
  • 10 wooden sticks
    or skewers
  • 2 quarts
    vegetable for frying

Cooking Directions

  1. In a large bowl whisk together the cornmeal, flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Add the beaten egg, buttermilk, oil and honey. Stir until combined. Batter will be thick.
  2. Remove hot dogs from package. Wipe all of the hot dogs with paper towels. (This will allow the batter to adhere to the hot dogs) Insert one wooden stick into each hot dog.
  3. Pour the batter into a tall drinking glass. Holding by the wooden stick, take one hot dog and dunk it into the batter, coating all of the hot dog. Slowly remove from batter and let a little excess batter drip back into the glass. Immediately place into hot oil. Turn as necessary to brown all sides. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes or until all sides are deep golden brown. Remove from oil and drain on paper towels.

      Hi Angelina~
      (love your name)
      Homemade corn dogs are fantastic,
      not something you'd eat every day,
      but a real treat when you do!
