Steps:
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.
- In a shallow dish, combine muffin mix with flour, then stir in eggs, milk and melted butter. Season the mix with chili powder, cumin, cayenne and scallions. The batter will be a thick, sticky biscuit dough. Place a hot dog in the bowl of batter and swoosh it around to coat it. Remove coated dog to a nonstick cookie sheet and use your fingers to spread batter on any exposed dog spots. Don't coat it too thick, just shy of 1/2-inch should do the trick. If it's too thick it will just slide off the dog while it's baking, leaving the dog exposed. If that happens don't sweat it, they will still taste great. Repeat until all 8 are coated. Bake 12 to 15 minutes or until evenly deep brown all over.
- Serve the oven baked corn dogs with your favorite hot dog condiments. Serve with Sweet Relish Slaw Salad and with some baked or reduced-fat chips alongside the dogs.
- In the bottom of a medium, shallow bowl combine relish, vinegar, oil, garlic, bay and cloves. Let stand 5 minutes then fish out the garlic, bay and cloves. Add cabbage salad and toss, let stand 10 to 20 minutes in the refrigerator. Season salad with salt and pepper, toss in the scallions then serve.

Steps:
- 1. Preheat the oven to 400F. In a shallow dish, combine the corn muffin mix, egg, milk and butter. Stir in the chili powder, cumin and hot sauce.
- 2. Put a skewer or Popsicle stick into each hot dog.Prepare the foil "boats" and place on a baking sheet. Place a hot dog in the bowlful of batter, swish it around to coat it, and place the dog in the boat. Repeat until all dogs are coated.
- 3. Bake in the preheated oven for 12 minutes, or until evenly browned.
Tips:
- Selecting the Right Cornmeal: Choose a fine-ground cornmeal for a smooth batter that coats the hot dogs evenly.
- Balancing Ingredients: Adjust the amount of water or milk in the batter as needed to achieve a thick but pourable consistency.
- Properly Coating Hot Dogs: Dip each hot dog into the batter, ensuring it is fully coated, and then roll it in the cornmeal mixture for a crispy outer layer.
- Controlling the Oil Temperature: Maintain the oil temperature between 350°F (175°C) and 375°F (190°C) for evenly cooked corn dogs with a crispy crust.
- Preventing Sticking: Use a large pot or Dutch oven to avoid overcrowding and ensure the corn dogs have enough space to fry without sticking together.
- Draining Excess Oil: After frying, place the corn dogs on paper towels to drain any excess oil for a less greasy result.
