Ingredients

• 1 cup All-purpose flour
• 1 cup Yellow cornmeal
• 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
• 1 tablespoon Baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 2 large Eggs
• 1.25 cups Milk
• 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter, melted and cooled
• 6 Hot dogs
• 0.5 cup Shredded cheddar cheese (optional, for topping)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9x9-inch baking dish or line it with parchment paper for easy removal.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, yellow cornmeal, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt. Mix until evenly combined.

Step 3

In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, and melted butter until smooth.

Step 4

Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.

Step 5

Pour half of the batter into the prepared baking dish and spread it evenly with a spatula.

Step 6

Lay the hot dogs across the batter in a single layer. Depending on the size of your hot dogs, you may need to trim them slightly to fit.

Step 7

Pour the remaining batter over the hot dogs, making sure they are fully covered. Smooth the batter with a spatula.

Step 8

If using, sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the top of the batter.

Step 9

Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Step 10

Remove the cake from the oven and allow it to cool in the pan for 5-10 minutes before slicing.

Step 11

Serve warm and enjoy your Corn Dog Cake with your favorite dipping sauces, such as ketchup, mustard, or honey mustard!
