Ingredients
- 8 low sodium hot dogs
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 cup cornmeal
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
- 1 cup milk
- 1 large egg
- 0.25 teaspoon cayenne pepper
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 4 cups vegetable oil
- 8 wooden skewers
Directions
Step 1
Cut each low sodium hot dog in half and insert a wooden skewer through the cut end of each hot dog piece.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, cornmeal, baking powder, cayenne pepper, and black pepper.
Step 3
In a separate bowl, whisk the egg and then add the milk, melted unsalted butter, and honey, mixing thoroughly.
Step 4
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring until just combined to form a thick batter.
Step 5
Heat the vegetable oil in a deep pot over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).
Step 6
Dip each skewered hot dog into the batter, ensuring it is evenly coated, then carefully place it into the hot oil.
Step 7
Fry in batches, turning occasionally, until the mini corn dogs are golden brown and crispy, about 3-4 minutes.
Step 8
Remove the corn dogs from the oil and place them on paper towels to drain any excess oil.
Step 9
Serve warm with your choice of low sodium ketchup or mustard.
