Ingredients

• 1 pkg of Hot Dogs
• 1½ cups corn meal
• 1 cup all purpose flour - for batter mix
• ½ tsp cayenne pepper
• 3 tsp baking powder
• 1 tsp salt
• 1 egg
• 1¼ cup milk
• Vegetable oil, for frying
• extra flour for dusting hot dogs

Directions

• Using a deep fryer heat oil to 375ºF or on stove top add 4 inches of oil to a medium to large, heavy-bottomed stock pot. Attach the deep-fry thermometer then heat the oil over medium-high heat until the thermometer reaches 375ºF.
• Cut each hot dog in half then insert a stick into the cutoff end of each hot dog. Thoroughly dry off the hot dogs with paper towels.
• Lightly dust each hot dog with all purpose flour. Do not go heavy on dusting. This will make your batter not stick to your hot dogs.
• In a large bowl, whisk together the cornmeal, flour, cayenne pepper, baking powder and salt.
• In another bowl, whisk together the egg and milk. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until combined using a spoon or spatula.
• Dip each hot dog in the batter until it’s completely coated, lightly shake off the excess. Lower it into the hot oil. Fry the corn dog until golden and crispy, about 3 - 4 minutes, then transfer it to the paper towel-lined plate.
