Mini Corn Dogs
Created by: Howcan Team
Ingredients
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup yellow cornmeal
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/8 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1 large egg
- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
- 24 cocktail sausages
- 24 wooden skewers
- Oil for frying
Instructions
- In a large bowl, whisk together 1 cup of flour, 1/2 cup of cornmeal, 2 tablespoons of sugar, 1 teaspoon of baking powder, 1/2 teaspoon of salt, and 1/8 teaspoon of black pepper.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 1/2 cup of milk, 1 large egg, and 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Insert a wooden skewer into each cocktail sausage, leaving enough exposed for easy handling.
- Pour oil into a deep pot or fryer to a depth of 2 inches. Heat the oil to 375°F (190°C).
- Dip each sausage into the batter, coating it evenly, then carefully place it into the hot oil. Fry in batches for 3-4 minutes, or until golden brown, turning occasionally.
- Use a slotted spoon to remove the mini corn dogs from the oil and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
- Serve the mini corn dogs warm with your favorite dipping sauces.
Mini corn dogs are a beloved American snack that originated in the 1940s. These bite-sized treats consist of a savory hot dog coated in a sweet cornmeal batter and deep-fried to golden perfection. They gained popularity at state fairs and carnivals before becoming a staple at fast-food chains and family restaurants across the country. Chefs and home cooks have put their own spin on this classic dish, adding unique seasonings or using different types of sausages. Today, the best mini corn dogs can be found at county fairs and food trucks, where they are served piping hot with a side of tangy mustard or ketchup. Perfecting the crispy batter and using high-quality hot dogs are essential for creating the ultimate mini corn dog experience.
