Homemade Corn Dogs



It has been way too long since I've been to the state fair and it has been that long since I've had a corn dog.

Once I saw this recipe at Mika's Pantry, I had to post it so we can enjoy one of my favorite things at home!

Don't corn dogs conjure up childhood memories of the state fair?





Ingredients

1 1/2 cups flour
2/3 cups sugar
1/2 cup cornmeal
1 tablespoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 1/4 cups milk
2 large eggs, lightly beaten
1/3 cup oil
3 tablespoons butter, melted
1/2 teaspoon Coleman's dry mustard
1/8 tsp. cayenne pepper
Hot Dogs of your choice
Wooden Skinny Sticks (found at Walmart craft section)
1 (48 oz) bottle of Canola Oil (for frying)


Directions

Combine flour, sugar, corn meal, baking powder, salt, dry mustard and cayenne in a medium bowl.

Combine milk, eggs, oil and butter in a small bowl and mix well.

Add milk mixture to the flour mixture and stir just until blended.

Pour bottle of oil in a dutch oven or deep fryer and begin to heat to approximately 370 degrees over medium heat.

Pour some of the cornmeal meal mixture into a tall narrow glass.

Push sticks into one end of the hot dogs leaving enough to grab the end.

Dry off hot dogs with a paper towel and dip into the glass of cornmeal mix.

Put into hot oil and turn over until it is a nice golden color. Take out and let drain on a plate covered in paper towels.

Repeat process until all the corn dogs are made putting no more than two at a time in the oil.
