EASY FUN-SIZE CORN DOGS



Easy Fun-Size Corn Dogs image

Not only are these corn dogs easy and fun, but because we're doing them in the oven and not deep frying them, they are way, way less messy to make. Above and beyond all of that, I thought the timing was perfect for these, since pretty much every carnival and fair got canceled this year. Serve with mustard and ketchup.

Mini Corn Dogs (From Emeril) image

A great recipe from Emeril Lagasse. You will need 50 toothpicks for this recipe. Be sure and try some Recipe #280453 with these for a special dipping treat!

Provided by 2Bleu

Categories     Pork

Time 25m

Yield 50 appetizers, 15 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 egg, beaten
1 cup 2% low-fat milk
2 teaspoons Emeril's Original Essence, Seasoning
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
3/4 cup yellow cornmeal
1/2 cup flour
2 teaspoons sugar
salt
cayenne pepper
1 (50 count) package miniature hot dogs
1 cup yellow mustard (recommended 2bleu's Sweet Mustard Sauce for Pretzels and More!)

Steps:

  • Tip: Dry mini hot dogs with paper towels (rolling a few around at a time). this will help the batter stick to the dogs.
  • Preheat the fryer. In a mixing bowl, whisk the egg and milk together. Whisk in the Essence, baking powder, cornmeal, flour, and sugar. Whisk until smooth. Season with salt and cayenne.
  • Spear the sausage links leaving a 1/2-inch from the top. Dip each sausage in the batter, coating the sausage evenly.
  • Gently lay the corndogs in a deep fryer or pot of hot oil (350F) and fry until golden brown, about 3 to 5 minutes, stirring occasionally for overall browning.
  • Remove the corndogs from the oil and drain on a paper-lined plate. Season the corndogs with Essence. Serve the corndogs with warm mustard.

Tips:

  • Use a good quality hot dog. This will make a big difference in the overall flavor of the corn dog.
  • Make sure the cornmeal batter is not too thick or too thin. It should be thick enough to coat the hot dog, but not so thick that it's difficult to stir.
  • Heat the oil to the correct temperature before frying the corn dogs. If the oil is not hot enough, the corn dogs will not cook properly.
  • Fry the corn dogs in small batches so that they don't overcrowd the pot. This will help them cook evenly.
  • Serve the corn dogs hot with your favorite dipping sauce.
