Ingredients

Makes 6 servings

  • —all-purpose flour
  • —yellow cornmeal
  • —sugar
  • —baking powder
  • —baking soda
  • —salt
  • —large egg
  • —honey
  • —melted butter
  • —cold buttermilk
  • —cornstarch (optional coating)
  • —all-purpose flour (optional coating)
  • —all-beef hot dogs
  • —neutral oil (for frying)
  • —wooden skewers

How to make it

  1. Pat the hot dogs dry and insert skewers.

    Drying the hot dogs helps the batter stick better, ensuring a crispy coating.

  2. Lightly coat each hot dog in the flour and cornstarch mixture.

    Coating the hot dogs in flour and cornstarch creates a better surface for the batter to cling to.

  3. Whisk together the flour, cornmeal, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.

    Mixing the dry ingredients thoroughly ensures an even distribution of flavors and leavening agents.

  4. Add the egg, honey, melted butter, and cold buttermilk.

    Incorporating the wet ingredients creates a batter that will coat the hot dogs, but be careful not to overmix.

  5. Pour the batter into a tall glass.

    Using a tall glass allows for easier dipping of the hot dogs into the batter.

  6. Dip each hot dog, coating it completely.

    Dipping the hot dogs ensures they are fully coated in batter, which is essential for a good corn dog.

  7. Fry at 350°F (175°C) until golden brown, about 3–4 minutes.

    Frying at the right temperature ensures the corn dogs cook evenly and develop a golden-brown crust.

  8. Drain on paper towels and serve warm with your favorite sauces.

    Draining the corn dogs on paper towels helps remove excess oil, making them less greasy.
